Right.
I think one of the other things that we do know—it's a fact—is that people are living longer. A lot of people didn't plan for 25 or 30 years of retirement, and now they're getting to the stage where they're thinking they'd like to retire at 55, but what happens if they're still living at 85 or 90? Perhaps 55 is too young to be retiring out of the workforce.
Even if it's something they can do part-time, on contract, or whatever, are we seeing more trends around that kind of thing, and are we finding employers being more flexible?
We've had some other witnesses say that one of the advantages of older workers—if they're willing to do it and it fits in with what they want to do and what their employment expectations are—is that they are more flexible. Their work-life balance is different, because the kids are gone for the most part and they're not caring for children at home. They have more flexibility, they could work different hours, different days of the week etc. As well, some can take a contract for a period of time and then not do something for a bit when that is over.
Is that a key component of the older worker labour force, to make sure that there's maximum flexibility in a lot of these opportunities?
