Jobs for Retirees

Baby Boomers will fundamentally reinvent retirement. Half of adults between the ages of 50 and 70 said they are interested in taking jobs now or in the future to help improve their quality of life. Many people believe that staying on the job is one way to stay healthy.

More employers are interested in hiring seniors, and some are even setting up special recruiting programs for retirement jobs to attract older workers. Many recent retirees have become consultants and temporary employees. Use the expertise you developed during your career to offer short-term consulting or freelance services to companies that prefer to hire contract employees on special projects. Register with an agency and start temping. Temporary employees("temps") are used by many businesses to supplement full-time staff or to help out with special projects.
