Age Unlimited: Exploring Employment Barriers For Older Workers

Australians are living and working longer than ever before. But what does this mean for our ageing workforce? What issues do older workers face and how do employers view them? Unfortunately, negative stereotypes and flawed perceptions about older workers abound. In 'Age Unlimited: Exploring Employment Barriers for Older Workers', Catherine S. Shrubsole has used extensive research and current data, plus her intuitive wisdom gained from over 20 years in the HR industry, to discover which perceptions surrounding older workers are real, which are not and what you can do about it. This book suggests ways in which employers can overcome age-related barriers in relation to the employment and retention of older workers and tips on how older workers themselves can improve their future employment outcomes. It is an excellent resource for decision-makers as we tackle the debate surrounding the future of employment in Australia. We can all learn from its important message in order to create more effective organisations and more meaningful work for everyone.
