Americans are living longer, but much of today’s public conversation around longevity focuses narrowly on retirement timing and savings accumulation. This framing overlooks a deeper structural issue: workers cannot save for longer lives if they cannot consistently access jobs, training, advancement, and economic mobility across extended careers.
CWI is working to change this situation by inserting ‘work’ into the national conversation on longevity.
CWI commissioned Ipsos to conduct a first-of-its-kind national survey of U.S. adults ages 18–75, looking at how access to training and jobs shapes Americans’ long-term financial security as they age. The Longevity Workforce Outlook reveals how workers of all ages view the 5-generation workplace and the persistent misperceptions about different generations’ attitudes toward technology adoption.
Watch a clip of our President & CEO, Gary A. Officer, discuss these findings with Ramona Schindelheim, editor-in-chief of The Future of Work(ers).
