More senior workers are staying in the workforce than ever before, and that may be a “win-win” for employers and workers alike, writes my colleague Alexa Mikhail for Fortune’s February and March 2024 print issue.
Around one-fifth of Americans ages 65 and older are still working, nearly double the number compared to three decades prior, according to a recent survey from Pew Research. Some senior employees may need to work to help pay for caregiving expenses or to simply support our longer lifespans, which traditional retirement can’t provide for. Others choose to work for social connections or to have a sense of purpose.
