Overcoming Age Discrimination

Skills Challenge

Age discrimination can affect workers of all ages. Everyone is capable of having misleading preconceptions about a person’s ability and willingness to learn. Personal financial circumstances sometimes result in people working for longer, or in returning to work after a break. The official pension age in the UK is also increasing. That means managers are managing teams with a diverse age range, often managing people older than themselves. Being able to take full advantage of the skills and experience of all team members, regardless of age, is key to ensuring everyone feels included and valued.
