LAS VEGAS — If you see a few gray hairs on the heads of Nevada Federal Credit Union employees, it's not surprising.

Thirty-three percent of employees are age 50 and older, a fact that didn't escape the notice of AARP when it put the credit union on this year's list of best employers for workers over 50. The average tenure of those mature workers is 11 years.

AARP cited a list of factors making the credit union an employer-of-choice for seniors. The roster includes:

  • A workplace culture and learning and development programs open to both full-time and part-time employees.
  • Benefits that include medical, prescription, vision and dental insurance as well as disability coverage and long-term-care insurance for employees working at least 18 hours a week.
  • Age 50-plus employees can make catch-up contributions to their 401(k)s, which include a matching employer contribution.
  • Financial planning advice.
