Are you worried about your labour supply? Well... there are places you might find it, if you're open-minded. In this episode of The HR Hub, we dive into the world of older workers, their potential, and the myths surrounding them. I spoke with Laura Tamblyn Watts, CEO of CanAge, Canada's national seniors advocacy organization. She is a researcher, teacher, speaker... and well qualified to participate. We covered the gamut and I asked tough questions like: don't they cost more? Laura shared her insights on this and the good and bad news about the labour market and how we can prepare for looming labour shortages. We discussed: 🧓 How older workers can be a solution to Canada's significant labour shortage 💼 The importance of good retention strategies and avoiding ageist practices 👩‍💻 Why the myth that older workers can't use technology is just that - a myth 🎓 Everyone wants learning and development - including older workers 💡 How companies can actively attract, retain, and support older workers At the very least, include age in your DEI statement. She is super knowledgeable! Check it out! Find Laura at / laura-tamblyn-watts-a8ab61 CanAge https://www.canage.ca/ Living, Learning and Earning Longer: https://www.aarpinternational.org/ini...
