Employability encompasses finding and keeping a job, considering individual, organizational, and governmental elements. When employability is associated with aging, ambivalent questions arise on the one hand, there is a shortage of labor; on the other, there are few jobs available for older workers. The aim of this study was to identify how the literature addresses the employability of older people and its respective predictors. Following PRISMA-ScR, 100 articles were identified in the database and 47 were selected for the review. The results indicated that the most studied predictors were age, health, professional development, and ties to work. This topic has been addressed at the individual and organizational levels, with a lack of analysis at the government level. There is a need for more research on the subject, especially in Latin American countries, which are poorly represented in the current literature
