Age Inclusive Workplaces
All are welcome to join this webinar with Age Scotland on Age Inclusive Workplaces . The webinar may be of particular interest to students and researchers with an interest in older workers, staff with line managing responsibility for older workers, HR and older workers themselves – plus anyone who is interested in the changing demographics of the work place.
WOW co-chairs Nicola McMeekin and Janet Bouttell will chair the webinar with Jonathan Parks and Mike Douglas from Age Scotland entitled Supporting an Ageing Workforce: how you can accelerate age inclusion. There will be a Q and A following the presentation.
The education sector is aware of the need to establish age-inclusive cultures within their organisations but even in normal times getting age-inclusion onto the agenda can be a challenge. As organisations look to build back better from the pandemic and priorities change, how can age inclusion rise on the agenda? As the national charity for older people, Age Scotland’s Age Inclusive Workplaces social enterprise has worked with 200 organisations on a range of age-related workplace initiatives.
- How could the Age Scotland ‘Age Inclusive Matrix’ help you to encourage your organisation leaders to invest in older workers?
- if your organisation does have a focus on older workers, how can you accelerate progress in area such as retirement planning, age inclusion, health & wellbeing and dementia?
- Busting the myths about age – so many negative stereotypes exist surrounding older workers
- How can you support your workforce through the challenges that come with age?
