Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

 Bridge employment is the term used to describe part-time employment in which the individual typically continues in the same work environment, but with reduced responsibilities and time commitment.
 This arrangement allows workers to keep their career identity until they fully retire. This growing proportion of older workers has many implications, including ones for counseling.
 Career issues for older workers include age-related changes in abilities and job performance, changing relationships, age discrimination, health concerns, family factors, and when and if to retire.
 Older workers can be as competent as younger ones and typically have more positive attitudes towards their work. Older workers seem to be more satisfied in their jobs, more involved in their work, and less interested in finding a different job.
