Member Event: 50 PLUS Choices – Supporting the over 50’s

Our 50 PLUS: Choices (Fuller Working Lives) programme aims to help employers to support their workforce from mid-life. It will raise awareness of the benefits of older workers, their skills and experience and help to improve line management education to ensure employees do not need to leave the workforce before they wish to. 

The programme, being delivered with the Department for Work and Pensions, will:

Develop the business case for older workers, Improve line management on why these employees might exit the workforce prematurely and providing tools to engage older workers in conversation.

It will also include how employers should support their employees to financially plan for the future and to look after their health & wellbeing.
