Why We Need Older Women in the Workplace
It’s from August 2015. And I have to admit that the headline does more for me than the article. The author misses the non-child-care reasons women over 40 start dropping out of professional work – we aren’t hired, we’re passed over for promotions, or our job gets eliminated. Women who have never had children, have no home-healthcare issues, start facing problems getting and keeping jobs once they reach 45 or so.
I have so much to offer a workplace. But my experience actually seems to count against me.
