June Resource of the Month
As the workforce ages, supporting brain health, cognitive resilience, and inclusive work design for older employees is more important than ever. This month, we're spotlighting an interactive resource that brings research and strategy together in one powerful tool.
"Understanding the Aging Workforce: Defining a Research Agenda" offers a deep, evidence-based look at how aging, work, health, and inequality intersect, and what that means for the future of work.
Our June Resource of the Month is Understanding the Aging Workforce – An Interactive Exploration, by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
Why You’ll Want to Explore It:
Visual, digestible, and interactive – no dense PDF reading required
Highlights critical research gaps in workplace support for older adults
Frames cognitive and mental health as key factors in sustaining work later in life
Emphasizes inequities that shape retirement options and cognitive health outcomes
Key Topics Include:
The employer–older employee relationship
Work, health, and caregiving intersections
Age bias, discrimination, and policy impacts
Inequities by race, gender, education, and geography
Whether you're designing benefits, developing policies, or just trying to better understand the shifting dynamics of our multigenerational workforce, this resource is a timely and thoughtful guide.
