Older workers who are made redundant find it harder to find alternative employment. What can employers do to promote inclusivity and age diversity in their workplace?
Employers could be missing out on the benefits of an intergenerational workforce, with the OECD finding that age diversity in the workforce could boost GDP by 19% in the next 30 years.
We know that 36% of 50-70 year olds feel at a disadvantage applying for jobs due to their age. This recruitment guide sets out five key actions to help organisations become more age-inclusive.
Active travel is key to people being happier, healthier and more connected. And yet levels of active travel drop off rapidly with age. How then, can we consider opportunities to increase levels of participation?
Our new report emphasises that well-designed neighbourhoods that enable people to walk and cycle are vital to helping people in their 50s and 60s stay active.
This report summarises the findings of our work on active travel and, for the first time, sets out the factors that govern active travel behaviours in people aged 50 to 70.
Tackling the climate emergency is an urgent issue that requires an intergenerational approach. Communities across the UK are ensuring the voices of older people are heard.
