Synopsis

These papers, commissioned by the National Academy of Social Insurance, explore the implications of an aging workforce, emphasizing the policy issues the U.S. will face when growing numbers of older workers begin to strain the capacity of social programs. The five sections examine what risks older workers face; job loss and associated income and health coverage issues; chronic illness and disability; the possibility and desirability of retiring later; and options for sharing costs and responsibility in filling health coverage gaps.
