"The Benefits of Hiring Older Workers: Why Employers Have to Consider It"

Many employers have set arbitrary age cutoffs for hiring and working, but the reality is that older workers are a valuable and growing part of the workforce. With a significant number of older Americans remaining in or reentering the workforce, it's crucial for employers to recognize the value of age diversity and provide opportunities for older workers to continue working and advancing in their careers. While some progress has been made in considering older job applicants, there is still a need for more age-friendly workplace policies and programs to support older workers in staying employed and adapting to changing work environments.
