Why Seniors in the Workforce Should Care About Social Security COLAs

As the population continues to age and economic landscapes evolve, the presence of seniors in the workforce has become increasingly significant.

While many seniors choose to continue working for personal fulfillment or financial stability, they should also be concerned about the state of Social Security and actively advocate for yearly Cost-of-Living Adjustments (COLAs).

This advocacy is crucial to ensure that seniors’ hard-earned benefits keep pace with the rising cost of living, safeguarding their financial well-being during retirement.

Seniors in the Workforce Will Be Retiring Soon

Seniors in the workforce may not need Social Security at the moment. Wealthy ones may not need it at all. However, the program is not a handout. It’s something seniors deserve since they’ve paid in.

It’s also important for those who do depend on it. Advocating for yearly COLAs helps seniors maintain their financial security and prevents their retirement income from eroding.

Inflation can disproportionately affect essential expenses. These include healthcare, housing, and groceries. These are areas where seniors often allocate a significant portion of their income. By actively supporting yearly COLAs, seniors in the workforce can ensure that their Social Security benefits are adjusted to account for these rising costs. This enables them to meet their basic needs without compromising their quality of life.
