Mature Age Workforce Resource
Local Government Professionals, in partnership with the Australian Centre of Excellence for Local Government, launched the Mature Age Workforce Resource at the National Local Government Workforce and Indigenous Employment Forum and Showcase in Canberra on 2 December.
The Mature Age Workforce Resource 2015 has been designed to proactively support the implementation of a corporate framework, policy and set of aligned, recommended actions towards the engagement, support and retention of older workers.
The resource reflects global best practices in managing an age-diverse workforce, with particular emphasis on the older workforce, and will enable Human Resources and Organisation Development practitioners to evaluate, apply and monitor improvement initiatives to enhance the employment experiences of their mature age workers.
