See job offersIn France, the number of active retirees in the job market is constantly increasing. Employees generally considered seniors are those aged 50 or over.
Recruiting seniors is not always obvious for an employer, but at Staffmatch we see seniors as an added value that can be an asset to your company!
Seniors: Very Active People in France
According to a report from the DARES, an organization under the Ministry of Labor, senior workers constitute 16.8% of the active population in the job market. This proportion is increasing, particularly due to new measures related to pension reform.
Contrary to what one might think, retirement is not synonymous with inactivity.
It happens that former workers are not satisfied with their retirement pension, which may be insufficient to maintain their standard of living. In order to benefit from additional income and improve their purchasing power, they can combine their work with their retirement.
Many seniors, some already retired and others approaching it, are currently looking for a job in order to obtain additional income to their pension. For others, continuing their professional activity helps maintain social connections.
Seniors are increasingly attracted to temporary work. Working on temporary assignments allows them to have additional income while choosing assignments adapted to their field and their know-how. This option also offers them the possibility of managing their schedule, selecting the number of working hours per week, and fully enjoying their retirement.
