Which term describes the employment of retired older workers who continue working in some capacity?

• A. Brain drain
• B. Bridge employment
• C. Cisgender
• D. Atheist

Answer: (B)

Engaging in paid work after retirement to bridge the period between full-time career employment and complete retirement is called bridge employment. This typically involves reduced hours or a job in a different or same field, helping with financial security, keeping skills active, and preserving social connections and purpose during the transition. The other terms don’t fit: brain drain describes the loss of skilled workers to other regions or countries, cisgender refers to gender identity aligning with assigned sex, and atheist denotes lack of belief in a deity.
