Kelly Services Partners with AARP to Provide Professional Career
Options for Mature Workers Featured Employer Program Emphasizes
Phased Retirement to Minimize Imminent Skills Shortage TROY, Mich.,
March 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Kelly Services, a global staffing
company, today announced a new partnership with AARP as a Featured
Employer in a program designed to connect mature workers with
companies committed to aggressive efforts to recruit, hire, and
retain them. By integrating this approach into their business
plans, many companies will find it is the competitive edge they
need to win the looming war for talent. (Logo:

Services has a long history of attracting and retaining mature
workers and we are pleased to strengthen this strategy as an AARP
Featured Employer," said Carl Camden, president and chief operating
officer, Kelly Services. "Mature workers are rated highly by our
customers and we find these employees are extremely focused,
reliable, and offer our customers a greater bank of specialized
skills and invaluable knowledge, particularly in the professional,
technical, and educational sectors." Finding qualified, talented
people is a challenge today, and it will be even more intense
tomorrow. A key demographic trend contributing to the gap between
job creation and the labor supply is the aging of the workforce,
which clearly points to a significant skills shortage during the
next two decades. Retaining access to mature workers will be
critical in terms of talent and productivity. A key component of
any long-term human resource strategy should be to engage older
workers on the job as they are highly credentialed, and often best
suited to meet the demands of the marketplace. "Seasoned workers
bring a competitive edge to any company, and our partnership with
AARP allows us to maximize and leverage their expertise and
abilities," said Camden. "Kelly offers many employment
opportunities and programs for mature workers who elect a phased
retirement, seek a new career path, or want to further their
professional development." At Kelly, mature workers are a
significant, valued segment of the workforce. They offer a wealth
of experience and are ready, willing, and able to work beyond
traditional retirement age. Mature workers benefit from the
flexible schedules Kelly offers that help them balance work and
leisure while providing interesting professional opportunities to
use their broad expertise to continue their career development. For

opportunities for mature workers available through Kelly, visit
