Older Workers Summit

NL's aging workforce & shrinking population can have a drastic impact on the labour market & the ability of businesses to find workers. But NL's demographic situation could also present an opportunity - more and more people are working well into their 60's and 70's. What can employers do to attract and retain older workers? What barriers do older workers face, and how can we find solutions to create more age-friendly work environments? What opportunities and spin-off effect could these solutions have for all workers? Join us for a day-long discussion and action planning workshop on the challenges for older workers, and the possible solutions and strategies that can help address this labour market opportunity. Presented in collaboration with the Office of the Seniors’ Advocate NL, Older Workers NL, and the St. John’s Board of Trade.
