When a person's retirement is planned for him, he will face it easily, in this regard, one of the measures that can be taken by organizations is to empower the employees who are about to retire. Therefore, the main goal of this research is to identify the mechanisms of empowering employees on the verge of retirement and the relationships between them, and finally provide a model of empowering employees on the verge of retirement in Iran's electricity industry. Considering the nature of the subject, the present research was conducted using qualitative method with Grounded theory. The data was analyzed after interviewing 14 experts of the electricity industry who were selected by snowball sampling method, and a total of 357 codes, 70 concepts and 18 categories were identified.
