With the downturn of our economy and inflation, many retirees require some additional income. Business owners and managers might consider the following benefits in hiring seniors.

Part time work and flexible schedules are attractive to active seniors.

Since income requirements are to supplement other sources, retirees typically do not require top of the scale wages.

Seniors may not need medical coverage as part of an employment package.

Retirees have a wealth of experience, smarts, interpersonal skills, work ethics and knowledge that can be applied to almost any business.

Having on the job experience, most retirees require minimal job training.

Retirees appreciate staying active in the working world and are self starting.

Hiring senior citizens will enhance your company’s affirmative action plan.

This is a win-win.
