Why AI-obsessed companies should care about the aging workforce
"According to the World Economic Forum, workers aged 55 and older will make up more than 25 percent of the G7 workforce by 2031. That's roughly a 10-point jump from 2011. And between you and me, I think the forum is underselling the number. My money says it will be higher."
Workers aged 55 and older are projected to become a much larger share of the G7 workforce by 2031, with growth that outpaces earlier baselines. Many organizations focus on artificial intelligence and cost control while overlooking the greying workforce that is already reshaping labor markets. Demographic change cannot be disrupted, downsized, or delayed, and it cannot be solved by automation. Older workers function as scaffolding for skills transfer, institutional memory, and cultural continuity across workplaces. Valuing and integrating people of all ages is positioned as a requirement for outperforming organizations that ignore demographic reality.
