[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry this happened. The AARP has a job board with postings from companies who are specifically looking to hire people over the age of 50: https://www.aarp.org/work/?intcmp=AE-WOR-W50-IL A lot of other companies also look for age 40+ workers. Could he possibly get in touch with a recruiter to help him find something else?[/quote] I always wondered why companies aren't encouraged to hire older workers by the government? If companies are encouraged to hire "diverse" candidates, why isn't age (45 or 50+) something that a company should get credit for doing? Companies don't have to pay older workers more than they would a younger worker, just hire them. While I understand that older workers might use more medical/dental benefits, this could be offset by some sort of tax credit.[/quote] The government DOES do this. It’s called the Senior Community Service Employment Program.[/quote]
