Reversing the Great Retirement

Becoming a Wahve – A Smarter Retirement Path

Research shows that employees who continue working after retirement stay healthier, live longer, and enjoy greater financial security. WAHVE enables retiring professionals to work remotely from home, gradually phase into retirement with fewer hours and responsibilities, and maintain the flexibility and balance they want during this transition. For HR teams, it offers a practical way to support employees while retaining their valuable expertise in the insurance industry.

Keeping retiring employees engaged in the industry

The insurance industry is losing employees faster than it can replace them. Many retiring staff don’t want to stop working entirely—they just want to leave the office behind. They’re looking to pretire, not retire.

WAHVE helps HR professionals offer these employees a soft landing by matching them with long-term, remote assignments at organizations across the country. This keeps knowledge and experience in the workforce while supporting employees’ lifestyle goals.

Why Choose the WAHVE Pretirement Program?

The WAHVE Pretirement Program provides value for both HR teams and retiring employees.

For HR Teams:

  • An alternative approach to retirement conversations.
  • A structured path to offer employees a soft landing.
  • Clear information about the WAHVE process.
  • Presentations, Q&A sessions, and webinars for staff.

For Retiring Employees:

  • Flexible work arrangements that suit their preferences.
  • Security of continued income while working remotely.
  • The ability to stay engaged and apply decades of knowledge.
  • A balanced transition into retirement with freedom and purpose.

Since our inception, we’ve provided a soft landing for retiring professionals in insurance, with over 4,000 placements in a wide variety of roles across all segments of the industry.

“WAHVE was the answer to my prayers. I wasn’t ready to stop working but wanted to work differently. It’s been wonderful. Fully retiring holds less of an appeal to me now.”
