Baby Boomers’ Impact on the Workplace

Posted under General & Marketing Massage for Special Populations & Massage for Elders

Spring has sprung– finally! I hope you are enjoying yours. I discovered an interesting site from the M.I.T. AgeLab and found an interesting article about the impact of baby boomers on the workplace. I was struck by one point in particular. When we boomers were young parents we demanded on-site child care. Evidently now some employers are looking at adding services and policies to support employees who are caring for aging parents to retain experienced staff. I haven’t thought of this but it sounds like a great idea! So many people are caring for aging parents– or, at least, helping out in some way. I think employers would be smart to take an innovative look at this. If you want to see the article, here is a link.

Take care, Ann
