Protecting older workers - Safety tips |
Older individuals comprise the fastest-growing age group in the United States. For the purposes of our review we identify these individuals as older than 50 years of age. Due to their good health and desire to remain active, or as a result of their financial circumstances, many individuals 50 years and older will choose or will need to remain employed. The safety tips below are based on the results of a study BWC undertook in partnership with the University of Cincinnati. To provide you with as much information as possible, we will archive these tips and post new tips periodically.
