The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects that the number of people over 55 years old in the workforce will rise to 32 million by the year 2025, a 75% increase since the year 2000. By 2020 this sector of the workforce, according to the Census Bureau, will increase by 73%, while the number of young workers will increase by only 5%.
This program will help managers develop and implement strategies that will allow their companies to capitalize on the strengths of this ever-growing sector of the employment base. It will enable them to be better prepared to handle the challenges that may arise with older employees as part of their workforce.
