11 Leveraging the Longevity Economy The Longevity Economy: the growing population over 50 represents both a transformative force and a net asset---a fast growing contingent of active, productive people who are working long and taking the economy in new directions The Longevity Economy is responsible for nearly 100 million jobs and generates over $4.5 trillion in wages and salaries Source: AARP, The Longevity Economy: Generating economic growth and new business opportunities,

12 Business Case to Invest into DCW Executive offices (DHE, EOEA, EOLWD) elevate investment into the DCW. - Workforce demands requires retooling our efforts to link business needs to workforce capacity. - Elder Affairs and community colleges promote our roles as an equal workforce partner. 12 Shifting risk away from homecare agencies. - Apprenticeship model to prepare/ screen candidates before they are placed at an agency. - Community colleges partner with social services or career centers to provide wraparound services for incumbent workers. - In turn recruitment/retention rates will increase. Homecare agencies invest into quality longterm staff (increase salary, consistent work schedules).
