Did you know that the fastest-growing age cohort in Canada is 55+? In this episode, we chat with Peter Fischer (YWCA Metro Vancouver), Maggie MacLean (ICBC) and Mandy Causer (ICBC) about employment opportunities for older workers. They bust common myths about older employees, discuss the benefits of hiring those who are over 55 and offer resources that are out there for older job seekers.
