Creating longer, more fulfilling working lives
Discover the policy frameworks and initiatives on offer to support older workers in the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany and the UK
This report is the culmination of a CIPD research project, carried out by IES on behalf of the CIPD, investigating how employers can best manage an increasingly older workforce in the context of their health and well-being and care responsibilities. It is a comparative study covering five European countries: the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany and the UK.
The report offers recommendations that have been highlighted by this research and these should be regarded as a starting point for employers from which to develop a holistic policy on attracting and retaining the valuable skills and talent of older workers.
