Research
carried out last year stressed the growing challenge facing employers in terms of
managing and supporting the UK's ageing workforce.
Figures
from the Office for National Statistics have suggested that the number of people
aged 65 and over still working has reached 1.19 million—up 25,000 from a year ago.
There were also now more people aged 50—74 in work than ever before. However, the
overall trend was hiding the fact that 12% people are forced to stop working before
reaching state pension age because of ill health or disability.
Nearly
half a million (436,000) workers who are within five years of state pension age
have had to leave work for medical reasons, with an apparent divide between the
North (worse) and South (better). Those in the lowest-paid jobs, including cleaners,
leisure industry workers and people doing heavy labouring jobs, were twice as likely
to stop working before retirement age, because of sickness and disability than managers
or professionals.
