Episode 131: The Great Unretirement

A full 25% of Americans age 65 to 74 are still participating in the workforce. A growing number of them once were retired and have come back to work full-time or part-time, a trend that’s been dubbed “The Great Unretirement.” And it’s not just happening in the United States. Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan, France, and Italy are all experiencing older workers staying in or coming back to the workforce on a similar upward trajectory. In this episode, Dr. Janel Anderson explores the reasons this is occurring, the impact it will have on the labor market, and what you can do if you want to get in on this trend and hire (or rehire) more experienced workers.
