Welcome, This is the first season of The 60 and More Crowd Podcast. Thanks to the early listeners in the global audience! This a Canadian based podcast with a generous global viewpoint,

Many people across the globe who are in their 60’s, 70’ and beyond are approaching or moving past traditional retirement timelines and delaying their exit from the workforce. In Canada, close to 25% of people over the age of 65 are working in some capacity.

In this episode we are taking an initial look at trends/key themes of older worker participation around the globe: Japan, Switzerland, Denmark, The Netherlands and Canada.  What's in place from employers and organizations to retain and re-engage these valuable older workers? Flexible employment, career shifts?

Employers/organizations navigating this shift to the labour force as people stay longer in the workforce.  I am curious to keep researching this!  

 I am Sue Plant, the host, producer, creator and chief research officer too. I guide   the conversation with listeners around the modern global workplace. 

What's my background: I transitioned into the post‑career working‑longer space after a longtime sales and marketing career with Scholastic, a leading global organization.
