T Positive career opportunity for those in their 30s and 40s Dollars & Sense Guest Contributor 35 | Thursday, December 17, 2015 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com here is a tremendous employment potential for workers in their 30s and 40s. This will have signi cant nancial impact for those who can capitalize on this opportunity. Personal nancial stability begins with the ability to earn an income. It is that income that provides your desired lifestyle and the ability to be able to save and, therefore, achieve long-term nancial objectives. The advantage will be your age. Currently, many younger workers have not been able to have a career they had Peter Watson hoped for. For many, age is currently a disadvantage. The opportunity that is evolving is based on baby boomers growing old. Baby boomers, currently aged 50-69 years, are starting to retire. Canada's economic challenge will be replacing older workers who now account for 27 per cent of the population. The peak of the exodus for baby boomers retiring is 10 years from now. It all boils down to a numbers game. There are not enough younger workers to ll the vacuum caused by baby boomers retiring. Our current immigration policy of accepting 250,000 immigrants annually will not make up the labour shortfall. For Canada to be successful, our workforce will have to be more ef cient and this means making better use of technology. Our career advice to individuals in their 30s and 40s is to be able to deliver the efciency that technology offers. Make technology your friend. There is a lot of room for improvement. Canada's workforce is signi cantly less efcient than that of the U.S. and other industrialized nations based on economic output per worker.
