This course will provide participants with information
about current facts regarding the Aging Workforce (age 50+).
Participants will learn about current workplace dynamics,
including generational differences, technology and workplace
culture and the key role that the Aging Workforce plays in
organizations. For those considering returning to the workforce
or making a change in their current workplace role, participants
will be provided with tools and recommendations for creating
effective resumes and honing interview skills. We will discuss
the variety of ways that workers can adjust their workplace
role such as reduced work schedules, consulting, or job sharing
as they look towards retirement. We will also discuss practical
considerations such as liability insurance, taxes and health
insurance as workers consider consulting or part-time work
arrangements. Participants will receive a list of local resources
to assist them in their employment transition, whether it is re-
entering the workforce, changing roles or “stepping down” their
work commitments as they move towards retirement.
