In this edition of Life Lessons with Life Senior Services, Alysha Hiltbrand talked to us about what seniors should consider if they are looking to re-enter the job market should consider.
Staying Active and Connected
Many older adults are choosing to return to work after retirement, driven by a variety of factors including a desire for social interaction, staying physically and mentally active, and supplementing their income.
Hiltbrand said some seniors fear that without a regular routine, they may face isolation or a decline in health.
Financial Considerations Before Rejoining the Workforce
Before making the decision to return to work, Hiltbrand recommends that seniors take a close look at their financial situation. Specifically, they should assess how additional earnings might impact Social Security benefits or retirement income.
Understanding these implications can help avoid unintended reductions in long-term financial support.
Support and Resources for Job-Seeking Seniors
Life Senior Services offers a range of resources to support seniors returning to the job market. These include volunteer programs that reintroduce social interaction and job placement assistance through organizations like AARP. Public libraries also provide job search tools and resume-building workshops geared toward older adults.
