USA - 15.09.2009 - von aarp

Having just finished its ninth year, the program launched in 2001 with the name "AARP Best Companies for Workers Over 50." In 2002, the name changed to AARP’s "Best Employers for Workers Over 50" to reflect AARP's interest in encouraging applications from a variety of employers from the nonprofit and for-profit sectors. Moreover, in order to recognize the important role that government employers play in the U.S. workforce, AARP also opened the program to public employers at the local, state, and federal levels. AARP recognizes that a growing number of U.S. employers are developing progressive policies and practices that are meeting the needs of the country's aging workforce. AARP seeks to share employers' best practices with the business community at large and to promote employment opportunities for older workers.

The AARP "Best Employers for Workers Over 50" is an annual recognition program that awards companies and organizations whose best practices and policies for addressing the issues affecting our aging labor force create roadmaps for the workplaces of tomorrow.
