AARP?taking ‘Best Employers for Workers Over 50’?applications
COLUMBUS - The application deadline for the annual AARP Best Employers for Workers Over 50 search is only weeks away. Employers who offer workplace practices and policies that are friendly toward workers aged 50+ are urged to apply at www.aarp.org/best employers before Feb. 13th. As more and more boomers turn 60, attracting and retaining skilled workers will become increasingly critical for employers seeking to retain a competitive edge. Estimates are that by 2016, one-third (34%) of the total U.S. workforce is expected to be age 50 or older, up from 28 percent in 2007. The AARP Best Employers awards recognize innovative organizations that offer policies and practices that appeal to workers 50+, including flexible work options, training/learning opportunities, competitive health and retirement benefits, and age-neutral performance and appraisal systems.
