How do you define the term "older worker"? There are many definitions that vary according to the source and context; they can be from a government, legal, academic, or public perception. However defined, the aging of the Baby Boomers has resulted in greater numbers of older workers at the workplace than ever before. This topic page provides an overview of some of the issues and concerns of older workers.
