Age-Friendly Employer Pledge
Become an Age-Friendly Employer
People are living and working for longer than ever before. Older workers bring valuable skills, knowledge, reliability and experience to organisations across Hertfordshire.
However, many people leave the workforce before reaching State Pension age due to barriers, outdated assumptions or a lack of support in the workplace.
By becoming an Age-Friendly Employer, your organisation can help change that.
The Age-Friendly Employer Pledge, led by the Centre for Ageing Better, helps organisations create inclusive workplaces where employees of all ages can thrive.
Why Sign the Pledge?
Employers who embrace age inclusion can:
- Attract and retain experienced staff
- Access a wider pool of talent
- Improve staff wellbeing and engagement
- Increase productivity and innovation through diverse teams
- Retain valuable skills and organisational knowledge
- Demonstrate their commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion
- Join a growing network of age-friendly employers across the UK
Research shows that age-diverse workforces can strengthen organisations and help address skills and labour shortages.
