If you employ people who are 50+ you can realise the benefits of an ageing workforce by supporting them in the workplace to help your employees prepare for their future and your own.

The importance of retaining, retraining and recruiting older staff

By 2020 1 in 3 workers will be over 50, and by 2030 half of all adults in the UK will be over 50. Understanding the challenges and opportunities of an ageing population is vital if we all want to create productive, innovative and inclusive multi-generational teams as we all lead longer working lives (https://bitc.org.uk/).
