In the 2006 "Center for Retirement Research Survey of Employer Attitudes Towards Older Workers" 36% of employers with 1000+ employees said that rank-and-file workers ages 55 and over were more productive than their younger counterparts, compared with 46% of employers with 100-1000 employees and 35% of employers with <100 employees.(Table 1, p. 2)
Center for Retirement Research at Boston College. (2006, July). Employer attitudes towards older workers: Survey results. Chestnut Hill, MA: Munnell, A. H., Sass, S. and Soto, M. from http://www.bc.edu/centers/crr/issues/wob_3.pdf
"To get a better understanding of the employment prospects of older workers, the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College (CRR) conducted a survey of 400 private sector employers. These employers were asked to evaluate the relative productivity and cost of white-collar and rank-and-file workers age 55 and older and whether, on balance, older employees or job candidates were more of less attractive than their younger counterparts."
