Scripps News & WorkingNation Collaborate on Age in the Workforce Panel

Programming example

Earlier this month, WorkingNation and Scripps News Network brought together an incredible group of experts in Denver to talk about one of the most important issues in the workforce today, equitable access to jobs and career advancement for mid-career and older adults.One in five workers in the labor force is over the age of 55 and that number is expected to grow to over one in four over the next few years as people are working longer, either out of financial necessity or personal desire.The conversation for the upcoming TV show Breaking Barriers: Embracing Age in the Workforce centered around age stereotypes that are putting a damper on hiring and promotion opportunities for people in their 40s, 50s, and older. Our very own, Diana Caba, vice-president for economic development at the Hispanic Federation talked about efforts to end ageism in the workplace and the enormous benefits of hiring these workers.This is information everyone needs to hear, from employer to employee to job seeker to policy maker.
