Recommendation 36
36
Paragraph: 204
Consider a dedicated national jobs service resource to support older people finding employment opportunities.
Recommendation
It is clear that to succeed in retaining or re-integrating people aged over 50 in the workforce, there needs to be a better understanding of what that age cohort wants from work. We recommend that the Government considers a dedicated resource, similar to the silver human resource centres in Japan, as part of a national jobs service to support older people to find relevant opportunities. This could, for example, be administered out of jobcentres.
