Ageing and exiting workforce

Want to increase employee retention and reduce recruitment costs?

Skills shortages are expected to deepen, demographic changes mean that workforces are ageing and recruitment costs are high. Employers must now consider mature-age workers as their source of skills and long-term success.

Managing your ageing and exiting workforce is about recognising that older workers bring a wealth of experience to your business and understanding the importance of implementing flexible workplace practices to make sure you keep them.

Transform can help you with a range of options and resources to attract and retain your skilled and experienced employees – read through chapter 4 of our People Plus (PDF, 335 KB) toolkit to find out how.
