Dr Michelle Reyers is a prominent policy lead at the Retirement Commission in New Zealand, where she focuses on issues related to aging and retirement. With a strong background in policy analysis and advocacy, she has been an influential voice in discussions about the financial security of older workers. Reyers has highlighted New Zealand's high labor force participation rates among those over 65, linking it to the absence of a mandatory retirement age in the country.
