Description

Aspen Institute UK is collaborating with Brave Starts to host a public webinar exploring how the UK can better attract, employ, and support older workers in a rapidly changing labour market.

As the UK population ages, employers and policymakers face both significant challenges and major opportunities. This 60-minute conversation will look at what it means to design work, careers, and policy frameworks that value experience, support longer working lives, and ensure older workers can thrive.

Speakers

  • Professor Martin Hyde – Deputy Head of Management, University of Leicester; President, British Society of Gerontology; Editorial Lead, Journal of Global Ageing
  • Tracy Riddell – Senior Programme Manager, Age Friendly Employment, Centre for Ageing Better
  • Cath Sermon – Head of Public Engagement & Campaigns, Standard Life Centre for the Future of Retirement

The panel will be moderated by Lucy Standing – Co-Founder, Brave Starts
