“Silver lining: The U.S. workforce has more employees over 65 than ever before and it could mean great things for the bottom line,” by Alexa Mikhail, Fortune

“The graying of the U.S. workforce is gaining momentum. A Pew Research survey found nearly a fifth of Americans age 65 and older were employed in 2023, nearly double the three decades prior. Employees 55 and older will constitute over a quarter of the global workforce by 2031, according to an analysis from Bain & Co. last year.”

LTC Comment, Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform:

With so many workers refusing to return to the office and demanding pay for work at home while “quiet quitting,” maybe it is time to bring back the grown-ups. With more boomers working longer, at least they’ll have enhanced revenue for LTCI premiums.
