Despite the Budget and the massive amounts of media coverage about the “older worker problem” we’re still not unpacking the real problems and getting the right policies argues Tim Whitaker a Wise Age Trustee in a new blog .
Nowhere is this more important than in London where addressing employment problems of older workers languishes not only behind other age groups, but also other more imaginative cities such as Manchester.
We urgently need a new narrative recognising the financial hardship of many older workers in London and barriers they face caused by disadvantage and a strategy for older workers with a clear programme of action.
