Smart Choices Supporting older workers guide for reps
The Supporting Older Workers guide has been designed to help union officers and reps in England raise awareness of how workplaces can provide better support and opportunities for older workers. It provides information about the issues older workers face as well as practical tools to support them in the workplace. It includes ideas and resources to help trade union reps work with employers to create more age-friendly workplaces, tackle discrimination against older workers and create more inclusive, healthy and sustainable workplaces for everyone as they grow older. There are also sections on skills development and careers planning to ensure that all workers get access to the very best support and encouragement, whatever their circumstances and future plans.
