How can tackling workplace ageism boost our economy?
Current research reveals that workers over 50 are being rejected from key roles across the country, with discrimination and bias from employers and recruiters often endemic. Over 1 million people aged 50+ across the UK want to work but are unemployed.
Join us at the RSA for a vital discussion of the cost of workplace ageism. Our expert panel - which will feature David D'Souza, Director of Profession, CIPD; Lucy Standing, Co-founder, Brave Starts; and Shruti Singh, Senior Economist, OECD - will explore how addressing ageism in the workplace could boost the UK’s economy by £9 billion annually—an essential step for the country's future prosperity.
This event is held in association with the RSA Economy & Business Network.
