Older Workers : Key Global Trends- Episode #5
Manage episode 510833342 series 3622708
Welcome to the 60 and More Crowd Podcast, made in Canada with a global scope! I am your host Sue Plant. This is the first season of The 60 and More Crowd Podcast and you are listening to Episode #5. Here on the 60 and More Crowd Podcast we shine the spotlight on the many people in their 60's and 70's and beyond keeping a work chapter in their lives. I am a real person too, also navigating the work longer scenario and enjoying connecting with people.
in today's episode, we are taking at look at a trend that many people across the globe are navigating. They are approaching or moving past traditional retirement timelines and delaying their exit from the workforce. How does this look in various countries and what are the levels of support in place ( or needing a boost going forward) to support this big change to the labour force. Featured countries: Japan, Switzerland, Denmark, The Netherlands and Canada.
These are short on the go episodes, less than 8 minutes. What's my inspiration for creating this podcast: first off I relate and understand to both the topic and the audience, Three years ago I left my longtime corporate career role to explore new ways of working. While on this path, two questions kept coming up: how are others navigating the work longer path and how are employers/organizations engaging and supporting this. Why not dig a little deeper into these questions and create a podcast to connect with listeners.
A common thread shared about modern worker longevity and highlighting the immense value older workers bring to the marketplace. How are both workers and employers/organizations navigating this big change and face to the labour force? .
In the spirit of the 60 and More Crowd Podcast: you can't navigate new paths with an old map!
Listener feedback welcome: you can reach me at the show email.
Thanks for listening and l look forward to speaking to you in the next episode.
