Hottest Employer of the Week for May 7th, 2007

Employment for Adults 55+

This is more of a concept than a company that is the Hot Topic for the week. The Pittsburgh area, as you know, is one of the oldest metros in the country. Because of this, we find ourselves in a situation where more residents are beginning to retire than we have young people coming in to replace them. This is good news for young people because it will make them more in demand by employers, but it also creates opportunities for all residents 55+ who wish to continue working, or pick up an extra income to help with retirement expenses.

The Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh has put together a tremendous program geared for adults 55+ to help with job placement, resume assistance, employment counseling and even in putting together an individual Employment Plan. They also offer opportunities for paid on the job training.

Employers are discovering the advantages of hiring adults 55+ including the life experience they bring, dependability, work ethic and responsibility. If you would like more information from The Urban League on their 55+ Employment, Training and Economic Empowerment Program, please call Angelique at 412-227-4177.
