This white paper discusses the impact of an ageing population on the UK workforce and highlights the potential of older workers in addressing skill shortages as their numbers increase. Key findings suggest that by 2022, 36% of the workforce will be over 50, and employers must adapt their strategies to meet the needs of this diverse age group, including flexible working options and proactive health and wellbeing management. Overall, managing the health and productivity of older employees is essential for maintaining a competitive talent pool and addressing future job vacancies.
