AnnotationRecent studies warn that the US economy will experience widespread job vacancies that cannot be filled because of a shortfall of workers. While it is true that employers will face more difficult challenges in recruiting and hiring staff than previous generations, the challenges have more to do with changes in the employment relationship, not a shortfall of workers caused by demographic change. These developments have important and positive implications for older workers. More generally, the solutions to these recruiting and hiring challenges focus back on employers and their own human resource strategies. (RH).
