{"product_id":"9781633218239","title":"Dynamics of Self-Employment Among Older Workers","description":"Baby boomers, who were born between 1946 and 1964, are entering their retirement years. Since rates of self-employment rise with age, a disproportionate share of the self-employed is composed of middle aged or older workers. Some of these workers have been self-employed for much or all of their working lives while others have transitioned to self-employment later in their careers, often as a way of moving into retirement. Future predictions of baby boomers as a key catalyst for small business growth in the next decade and beyond have tended to neglect an important trend. The self-employment rate among those nearing retirement (defined as individuals aged 55-64) has dropped substantially in the past 20 years. This book addresses questions about this decline, and discusses the self-employment transitions among the older American workers with career jobs.","brand":"Nova Science Publishers, Inc (US)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65433159729501,"sku":null,"price":122.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/3893\/2573\/files\/9781633218239.jpg?v=1789254205","url":"https:\/\/shop.gazellebookservices.co.uk\/products\/9781633218239","provider":"Gazelle Book Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
