Abstract
The generation born between 1946 and 1964 is large in relation to successive generations (Pew Research, 2016). A continuing trend of lower birth rates, combined with large numbers of expected retirements, has left Minnesota’s economy facing a shortage of employment-ready workers. State and federal programs to expand the workforce and develop workers’ skills among younger generations will be insufficient to meet the state’s need for workers between 2020 and 2030. Could older workers be a potential solution to help bridge the workforce gap?
