The Big Economic Factor - All things considered, various reports
indicate that older workers are 1% to 10% more costly than younger
counterparts when accounting costs alone are considered. In it
"Business Case for Workers Age 50+" prepared by Towers Perrin for
AARP, the authors conclude that "The benefits of a stable workforce
and avoiding turnover costs can exceed the incremental compensation
and benefit costs for a 50+ worker."
Traditional accounting does not consider productivity, and costs
avoided or reduced. Herein is the key to the economic justification
for the retention and attraction of age 50+ workers - older workers
are more productive, have lower turnover, stay with an employer
considerably longer than younger individuals and possess the
accumulated knowledge and skills of a lifetime. Analysis of the
economic value and profit contribution of age 50+ workers produces
a strong argument for the retention and recruitment of older
workers. Focusing only on the costs results in a flawed
outcome.
