Yes, people aged 65 and older are included in the Civilian Labor Force if they are actively employed or seeking employment. The Civilian Labor Force encompasses all individuals aged 16 and older who are either working or actively looking for work, regardless of age. This group can include retirees who choose to continue working or those who re-enter the workforce.

Individuals not included in the civilian labor force typically include those who are institutionalized, such as prisoners or patients in mental health facilities, as well as active-duty military personnel. Additionally, people who are not seeking employment, such as retirees, homemakers, and discouraged workers who have stopped looking for jobs, are also excluded. These groups contribute to the overall understanding of labor market dynamics but are not considered part of the labor force statistics.

The Department of Labor statistics seem to break down as follows: Total employed are just that, employed persons 16 years and older. The civilian work force includes unemployed and employed persons, ages 16 and older.

You would have no participation in the civilian labor force because it specifically excludes members of the armed forces.
No, retirees are counted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics as "out of the labor force."
They are not counted as part of the labor force unless they enter the labor force. They are considered to be part of the eligible labor force because 16 is the age you can legally be employed because of child labor laws. That is not to say someone under 16 can't work. it just means those under 16 are severly restricted in what they can do such as operate certain types of machinary and such.
No, the unemployed are not included in the labor force. The labor force consists of people who are either employed or actively seeking employment. Unemployed individuals who are not actively seeking employment are typically considered to be outside the labor force.
