Below Janette Bonner—a<br />
‘twilight’ worker in the spotlight.<br />
the report also found<br />
that twilight careers<br />
(workers over the age of<br />
63) remain the fastestgrowing<br />
segment and<br />
numbers have reached<br />
record levels. For the<br />
first time, the number of<br />
people employed in this<br />
segment has reached the<br />
half-million mark.<br />
It’s the contact I love. It’s stimulating to<br />
meet people, to discuss their needs and help<br />
find the answers. Janette Bonner<br />
the new twilight segment’s<br />
share of the workplace<br />
has literally doubled in<br />
the last 15 years and is<br />
expected to continue<br />
growing, as the 63+ age<br />
group look for ways to top<br />
up their depleted super<br />
funds, or simply keep busy<br />
long after the traditional<br />
retirement age.<br />
the Federal<br />
government’s<br />
recent commitment<br />
to contribute $10 million<br />
in funding to encourage<br />
employers to hire more<br />
mature-aged jobseekers<br />
will likely contribute<br />
further to a rapid growth<br />
in ‘twilighters’.<br />
