Abstract
This article considers the impact on individuals seeking, or in continuing work, and on organisations needing to manage older workers of the abolition of the default retirement age. Organisations will need to develop policies to cope with increasing numbers of workers in their late 60s, 70s and beyond. Here, we focus on the need for employers to plan for an ageing workforce in respect of the health and safety issues which will result from employing increasing numbers of older workers.
