Abstract :
Faced with the variability of labor supply, some organizations considered older workers as a viable, untapped resource that can easily be used more effectively or reincorporated in the workplace. This practice would alleviate the labor shortage for quality people for all levels of jobs. In addition, the federal government recently made it more attractive for retirees to return to the workforce with the passage of the Senior Citizens´ Freedom to Work Act of 2000, which repealed the Social Security earnings limit.
