Dynamics of Self-Employment among Older Workers - Economics Book

As baby boomers enter their retirement years, the landscape of the modern economy is shifting. This book examines the rising rates of self-employment among middle aged and older workers, a group that represents a significant portion of the self-employed population. While many workers have been self-employed throughout their entire careers, others are transitioning into this role later in life as a way to move into retirement. This text explores how these individuals act as a key catalyst for small business growth in the coming decade. By looking at the trends involving older workers and their impact on business economics in a rapidly-changing world, this book provides a necessary perspective on a demographic often neglected in future economic predictions. It is an essential resource for understanding the evolving relationship between age, employment, and small business development.
