Welcome Arizona Employers and Mature Workers!

 

Changing demographics and social trends are leading toward new perceptions in the workforce.  With the growing number of Baby Boomers nearing traditional retirement age, the loss of skilled talent within our workforce is imminent.

The realization that mature workers bring a wealth of knowledge, expertise, and professionalism to the workplace is leading employers to re-think traditional retirement.  Many of those employers are focusing on recruitment and retention of mature workers within their organizations.  The State of Arizona recognizes employers as pioneers in the ever-changing Arizona workforce by offering a Mature Worker Friendly Employer Certification.

The open application time period for this special employer certification began May 20th, and will remain open until July 15th, 2009.  We invite employers to visit the Mature Worker Friendly Employer Certification page of this website today for more information, and to apply on-line!

By developing a dialogue among the mature workforce, businesses, government, education, and local communites, opportunities for mature workers and employers to interact are being created.  While employment is not guaranteed, the resources and tools provided on this website and through the
Arizona Mature Workforce Initiative may be helpful to job seekers and businesses alike.
