 Employment Retirement Age

Business Link- Good news for employers 

Employers no longer need to retire older staff purely on the basis of their age. This means you can hang on to your experienced workers for longer (and save money on expensive recruitment). You can find information on working longer in the new employer toolkit:

http://www.businesslink.gov.uk/workinglonger

It provides quick and easy advice along with case studies of businesses already employing older workers.
