| Annotation | This report documents the rationale for changing attitudes to older workers, and uses as its starting point their continuing early exit or exclusion from employment, and the role of public policy. Specific issues in developing good practice in age management are examined: the external context (national and local); organisational culture; implementation processes; and outcomes, including intended and unintended consequences. These are discussed in the context of 22 detailed case studies prepared by national research teams in seven European Union member states. Conclusions and proposals for action are directed to all those concerned with the retention, retraining, and reintegration of workers as they age. |
