AARP has announced the creation of a new online tool to help employers assess their current and future workforce needs and the impact of an aging workforce. The AARP Workfore Assessment Tool is available free to employers and requires the use of Adobe Reader. The tool automatically generate a report that can help an employer:

• Assess any potential impact the aging workforce will have on the organization;
• Map out current employer practices and identify areas for improvement;
• Provide recommendations on how to maximize the experience of an organization's older workforce; and
• Provide an inventory of workplace strengths that can be used to enhance the employer's brand.
