Older Workers are in Demand

The norms about working at older ages have changed.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the economy gained over 2 million jobs over the past 12 months.  The number of employed workers age 65 or older rose by 697,000 – about 36% of the total gain.

Both of Croixstone’s practices (Consulting and Solutions) are dedicated to representing only highly-experienced professionals.  Given our own firm’s growth, we are not surprised that older workers are accounting for a significant proportion of job growth.

Opioid Crisis Myths + Truths

Last month, the Croixstone team invested in professional development to learn more about the very serious opioid crisis that is not only a public health issue, but a serious economic and workforce productivity problem.

We joined an educational seminar hosted by Social Venture Partners Charlotte that featured a 3-person panel comprised of a police officer, physician and social worker.  Croixstone learned that four North Carolina cities rank in the top 25 cities for opioid abuse.  Furthermore, the #1 city for opioid abuse is Wilmington, NC!
