Over the next decade, hundreds of thousands of knowledgeable, skilled mature workers will leave the Canadian workforce and employers will find filling the growing void increasingly difficult – especially in certain sectors. Statistics Canada predicts that by 2016, the demand for skilled workers will outpace supply.  As a result, smart organization are beginning to concentrate on persuading their key senior people to stay in any capacity and luring skilled prospects over 50 – a big departure from the days of exclusively targeting under-40s for new positions, promotions and career development opportunities.

In this webinar, Barbara Jaworski, CEO of the Workplace Institute, a company that assists organizations to leverage the talents and skills of all employees – and especially older workers –  and Darrell Lang, Senior Vice President of Bethany Care Society, one of Western Canada’s largest voluntary, not-for-profit health, housing and community services for seniors and persons with disabilities discuss:

• The myths and stereotypes surrounding older workers
• The advantages of older workers
• Strategies to attract and retain key senior employees
• How Bethany Care Society successfully competed for talent in a booming Alberta economy.
