National Older Workers Week Events

National Older Workers Week will run between 22nd to 26th November 2021 and includes a series of events for line managers, HR and Diversity & Inclusion professionals.

Sponsored by QA Ltd, the campaign aims to help organisations manage multigenerational teams and ensure any possible ageism is eliminated.

National Older Workers Week Events

Leading up to National Older Workers Week we will be promoting a series of positive stories and videos from older workers that aim to change the narrative. We will also be publishing news and features about all the issues affecting older workers.  

During National Older Workers Week we will be holding a number of events that bring together experts in this field, with the aim to educate, inspire and promote change.

The event will bring together those organisations that have successfully managed multigenerational teams and is ideal for line managers who are responsible for teams, although Directors, HR and diversity leads will also find value in attending.  Participants will share the challenges they have faced and how these have been overcome, whether that is combating ageism – both against young and old – in their processes and policies or promoting lifelong learning.
