DID YOU KNOW? . . . . . On average, 10 million jobs remain unfilled each month in the U.S. At the same time, #olderjobseekers are having a hard time finding work. Americans aged 50 and up contribute so much to the U.S. economy that they’d constitute the world’s third-largest economy if they were counted as their own country, a major AARP* study finds. The economic contributions of 50-plus Americans totaled $8.3 trillion last year, which puts them just behind the U.S. and China when measured by gross domestic product. Imagine that same economy powered even more robustly when #ageism is removed as a barrier for #olderprofessionals and #multigenerationalworkforces are thriving-That is real $$$$ pushed back into U.S. businesses and markets. Join tomorrow's #AgeismAwarenessDay AND EVERY DAY AFTER TOMORROW to make this a future reality! #talkaboutaging #olderworkers #ageinclusion #workforce #longevityeconomy www.greysource.com https://lnkd.in/g-bBk9H2
