| Annotation | It has long been asserted that the attitudes and behaviours of employers encourage early withdrawal from the labour market. This paper draws on results from the global ageing survey, "The future of retirement" (HSBC, 2006), to ask how widespread negative attitudes and stereotypes among employers are and whether these attitudes influence behaviour towards older employers.
