It consists in the difference from short term memory which could be damaged after for example electric shock. On the contrary the long term memory is very sustainable and does not extinct even in the old age.

In psychology, short-term memory is refered to as a passive store, that can temporarily hold a certain amount of information. Working memory however entails a broader concept. Working memory can not only store information but also manipulate information or inhibit irrelevant information. I am pretty sure that a lot of researchers do not agree with me, but you could say that short-term memory is a part of working memory.
Positive Transfer
There are three steps to the process of memory: encoding, storage, and retrieval. The first phase, encoding, involves the conversion of an idea or a stimulus into a form that the brain can store for later retrieval; the main types of encoding are visual, acoustic, and semantic encoding. The next phase, storage, involves the act of retaining information (either in sensory memory, short-term memory, or long-term memory). The final step is retrieval; this is just being able to extract from your memory a stored concept.
Cognitive psychology.
Mental resources is a term used in psychology to quantify the amount of "processing power" a human brain has. In cognitive psychology, the working memory is synonymous with mental resources, and is separate from the long term memory. This concept is essential to most psychology research involving learning, and is an integral part of Cognitive Load Theory.As a benchmark, research by G.A Miller has shown that the average person can hold 7 plus or minus 2 numbers at a time in their working memory.

The conversion of short term memory to long term memory is called memory consolidation.

Two subsystems to long-term memory include semantic and episodic memory.
