Here are part-time jobs retirees can do remotely during coronavirus
These positions have an hourly wage between $10.72 and $32.03
While many people choose to work during their retirement, the coronavirus pandemic has made it particularly difficult for retirees who are just starting to look for jobs.
Aside from the economic uncertainty and employment loss across the board, some also worry about contracting the virus in public work settings, since it’s more dangerous as people get older.
To help them out, AARP published a list of remote, part-time opportunities on Wednesday.
