Business News
As the American workforce ages, business owners face a new frontier in workplace safety and productivity. Employees are working well past traditional retirement age, and while their experience is invaluable, the physical demands of the job can pose increasing risks. Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), slips, trips, and falls are rising among older workers, driving up workers’ compensation claims and reshaping how employers think about ergonomics, return-to-work programs, and age-inclusive safety design. This isn’t just a demographic shift – it’s a strategic challenge. By 2030, one in four U.S. workers will be 55 or older. Among those 75 and older, labor force participation is expected to grow by nearly 97%. Employers who fail to adapt may face higher injury rates, longer recovery times, and increased insurance costs. But those who respond with foresight and empathy can reduce risk, retain talent, and build a workplace culture that values every generation.
