Synthesis Report: Older Workers Synthesis
Topic Area: Older Workers
Findings:
Although most workforce programs serve older workers, few specifically focus on this population, and research has not evaluated their impacts.
Studies that examined the impact of broader workforce programs, such as the Workforce Investment Act Dislocated Worker program, did not focus on older workers.
Firms that allow flexible work schedules appear to have lower rates of early retirement among older workers.
Changes to the Social Security retirement benefits have important impacts on older workers’ decision making.
Changes in health insurance policies have mixed or small impacts on older workers’ employment outcomes.
