ABA’s 2017 National Conference on Equal Employment Opportunity Law: Real Life: Bold and Avant-Garde Ideas About Employing The Older Worker

Employment partner Gary Siniscalco will be moderating a panel titled “Real Life: Bold and Avant-Garde Ideas About Employing The Older Worker” at the ABA’s 2017 National Conference on Equal Employment Opportunity Law.

One size does not fit all. Not every worker plans to retire at age 65. Are quality of employment and successful engagement of older workers imperatives for the 21st century multi-generational workforce, and if so, why? Join these highly talented and knowledgeable professionals as they bust the myths of aging in the workplace, discuss the “real facts,” and identify enlightened strategies for: conducting individualized employer workplace assessments (with surveys, scores, and tip sheets for proceeding); securing “knowledge management;” pinpointing the key dimensions to quality jobs for older (and even younger) workers (such as training and development, opportunity for meaningful work, stability, and inclusion); and effectively engaging older workers through concepts like flexible employment, phased retirement, mentoring, second careers, and other cutting-edge practical solutions. We promise this thought-provoking discussion will interest you and challenge your perspectives, regardless of your constituency (plaintiff, union, management, government, etc.).
