The rising cost of living and historic inflation have forced many older adults to extend their working years or “un”-retire to cover the cost of basic expenses. As older adult labor force participation continues to grow post-COVID, many will face barriers to securing employment in traditional and non-traditional markets.
Join an NCOA roundtable to hear a panel of experts discuss:
- Barriers older workers confront as they extend their working years or return to employment
- Federal, state, and local solutions that can ease the path to employment
- What organizations can do to support this population
