Entering one's 50s often unveils the harsh realities of ageism, a societal issue that many don't recognize until personally affected. A striking study indicates that 90% of individuals over 40 have faced ageism at work, and the perception of when someone is 'too old' for employment tends to skew towards those nearing 50. As people juggle complex responsibilities—like raising children while caring for aging parents—they also encounter risk in their careers, particularly when companies cut costs, often targeting more senior employees.
There's something about entering that sixth decade that makes ageism glaringly real. And unfortunately, it's not just someone else's problem; it's everyone's problem.
By the time you hit your 40s or 50s, life is really busy... And suddenly, your experience and seniority... can make you a target.
