For most people in the workforce today, the idea of spending their entire career with one organization, then retiring at 65 with a gold watch and a vacation home is something of a foreign concept.

The reality is that many Canadians are changing their approach to work to adapt to the realities of the job market around them. They know they're likely going to have multiple jobs over the course of a career, and with this reimagining of work comes a rethinking of retirement.

Indeed, many Canadians are a part of the Flexforce.
