Community Literacy of Ontario (CLO) is pleased to share our Older Adults Dealing with Un- and Under-Employment resource.

This resource will explore the difficulties faced by persons 50 and older who are unwillingly unemployed or underemployed. Some areas covered will be:

  • age discrimination

  • lack of skills

  • over qualification

  • applying for work

This resource has been designed for learners with Level 2 skills.

While this curriculum resource was specifically written for under-represented groups, the content may have broader application to other adult learners who are interested in this topic.

This resource is designed to be used by learners in various settings, including independent learning, 1-to-1 tutoring, small group and classroom learning.
