Age Matters’s Mature Workforce Participation Roundtable brought together advocates, business community leaders and mature-age workers to discuss how we can change community perceptions on working beyond traditional retirement age. The roundtable also explored the role of organisational culture in welcoming mature age workers at the Illawarra-first event.
The event was one of the commitments of the Mature Workforce Initiative Statement of Intent, which formalised the partnership between Age Matters and the Australian Human Rights Commission. The organisations are working to change perceptions about mature age workers to improve choice and quality of life for over 50s.
Key discussion points included
With an engaging and interactive day of panel sessions and group workshops, pictured below, the Roundtable gave a clear direction for the region to improve participation rates for mature workers. As the Illawarra economy is in a state of transition, it was agreed that there was a need to support both employers and employees to better understand the opportunities through innovative employment strategies, and to build a stronger economy to provide jobs for both young and old.
