What we’ve learned from championing an older workforce! 🧐

Workers over the age of 50 currently make up 33% of the UK’s workforce, but according to the latest Office for National Statistics labour market report, people between the ages of 50 and 64 have been the most economically inactive following the pandemic.

There are real benefits to employing older workers – from building a more diverse team to fostering a culture of belonging. There’s also an advantage from a recruitment perspective, offering an alternative source of talent.

Ultimately, the world has changed. People are now living longer, healthier lives, the state pension age is rising and forced retirement has come to an end.

This means people can think about work in a different way as they get older. It’s time to support older people to stay in control of how they work to best suit their wellbeing and future finances > https://ow.ly/BkSk50TjS3x

The S&P Global UK manufacturing PMI survey came in at 52.5 for August, up from 52.1 in the previous month and unchanged from the earlier “flash” estimate.

The reading was the highest for 26 months and fell in line with analysts’ expectations > https://ow.ly/UUAu50TghyX
