In an era of rapid population ageing, many employment and social
policies, practices and attitudes that discourage work at an older
age have passed their sell-by date and need to be overhauled. They
not only deny older workers choice about when and how to retire but
are costly for business, the economy and society. If nothing is done
to promote better employment prospects for older workers, the number
of retirees per worker in OECD countries will double over the next
five decades. This will threaten living standards and put enormous
pressure on the financing of social protection systems. This report
makes an important contribution to establishing a new agenda of
age-friendly employment policies and practices.
