The Aging Work Force
The fasted growing segment of the available work force is made up of individuals older than 50 years.
The Aging Work Force
Mandatory retirement was eliminated by law (the Age Discrimination in Employment Act and amendments), so most workers cannot be forced to retire as long as they are still able to do the job.
The Aging Work Force
There are significant numbers of willing and able workers age 50-plus available who cannot readily find employment; for a great many employers, these workers are considered “too old.”
The Aging Work Force
Although legal protection against age discrimination kicks in at age 40, for all practical purposes most instances of age discrimination involve workers over 50.
During periods of shortage, consider:
Using internship programs
Paying moving expenses
Using signing bonuses
Paying employee “finder’s fees”
Never Overlook —
— the potential value of recruiting from within the organization
