91% of unemployed UK professionals over 50 are considering returning to the job market

An exclusive survey of over 50s by the UK’s leading independent job board, CV-Library, has revealed that an overwhelming 91% of inactive workers in the age bracket intend to return to work.

The Office for National statistics (ONS) recently revealed that the number of people aged 50-64 who are economically inactive has increased by 3.6 million, a rise of 10% since before the pandemic and the survey results support this with 41.5% reporting that they either left a job or have been out of work since then, but a turnaround looks imminent.
