Tapping into the Older Worker Talent Pool

Here are practical strategies for UK organisations to recruit older talent into their workforce. Central to these strategies are the philosophy of skills-based recruiting and the use of e-recruitment technology to promote wide access to job roles and implement a compliant, skills-based recruiting process.

You can benefit from the UK AgeRegulations which came into effect on October 1, 2006. These make age discrimination—including basing recruitment selection decisions on age—unlawful in the UK. Realize the significant benefits to rebalancing recruitment practices for older workers.Learn how you can tap into this valuable and desirable talent pool when you:

  • Consider where you are advertising your job opportunities.
  • Word your job opportunities carefully.
  • Capture candidate data on compliant, electronic application forms.
  • Drive the selection process based on skills.
  • Consider reskilling or upskilling new or existing employees.
