18 Intergenerational Report 2010 Intergenerational Challenges. Population ageing will mean that there will be fewer workers to support retirees and young dependants. This will place pressure on the economic growth that drives rising living standards. At the same time, the ageing population will result in substantial fiscal pressures from increased demand for government services and rising health costs.
19 IGR claim direct effects on Policy The Budget included a rise in copayments for medicines supplied under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) and introduction of superannuation co-contribution. The Budget emphasised measures aimed at enhancing productivity and participation. The Budget referred to the IGR as a basis for superannuation changes such as the phased increase in the superannuation guarantee from 9% to 12%.
20 Australian Govt Dept Human Services Your eligibility for Age Pension depends on when you were born. From 1 July 2017, the qualifying age for Age Pension will increase from 65 years to 65 and a half years. The qualifying age will then rise by six months every two years, reaching 67 by 1 July Date of birth Qualifying age at 1 July 1952 to 31 December years and 6 months 1 January 1954 to 30 June years 1 July 1955 to 31 December years and 6 months From 1 January years
21 Age Discrimination Act 2004 Age Discrimination Act 2004 (ADA) aimed at prohibiting direct and indirect discrimination against a person because of the person s age or characteristics associated with that age. ADA also contains general exemptions, whereas discrimination on the basis of age is lawful. Exemptions are granted in respect to charities, religious bodies, voluntary bodies, superannuation, and migration.
22 HREOC 2012 As a society, we have been slow to recognise that millions of older Australians are locked out of the workforce by age discrimination. We are only now starting to understand what a terrible waste of human capital this situation represents; a loss to the national economy and to businesses large and small, and a loss to the individual who is pushed out of the workforce prematurely.

29 Rethinking Workplaces
30 World Economic Forum: Ageing Societies Global companies of the future will likely look very different from those of today for two reasons. First, as a consequence of 20th-century gains in longevity, advances in healthy ageing and increasingly flexible working environments, many more people will be willing and able to work into their 60s, 70s and 80s. Second, declining birth rates will lead to a dramatic shift in the proportion of old to young in societies around the world. The retention, recruitment and full participation of older workers may well become a necessity for companies accustomed to attracting most new hires in their 20s and 30s.
31 Age Friendly Work Design jobs that create a quality person-job fit that accounts for changes across the lifecourse. Complex and mentally challenging work is important for mature workers satisfaction and wellbeing.
32
33 A Longevity Dividend The extension of healthy life creates wealth for individuals and the nations in which they live If we succeed in slowing aging by seven years, the age-specific risk of death, frailty, and disability will be reduced by approximately half at every age Social, economic, and health bonuses for both individuals and entire populations- a dividend that would begin with generations currently alive and continue Simon Biggs University of Melbourne.
34 Economic Advantages of Longevity The extension of healthy life creates wealth for individuals and the nations in which they live Healthy older persons remain productively engaged in society through continuing work or voluntary activity. Most discretionary funds for consumption, accumulated by populations 50 to 65. Healthy individuals have accumulated more savings and investments by their old age than ones beset by illness. Healthy older persons require fewer health services.
35 No Lump of Labor The notion that younger and older workers are engaged in a zero-sum game for a fixed number of jobs.. CPS (USA) data by Gender? Wages? Education?
36 No evidence for Lump of Labor hypothesis An exhaustive search found no evidence to support the theory in the United States. In fact the evidence suggests that greater employment of older persons leads to better outcomes for the young- reduced unemployment, increased employment and a higher wage Munnell & Yanyuan 2012
37 The Carrots
38 The Carrots Create greater choice and flexibility about transitions in and out of work (Taylor et al, 2002; 2012) Enhance the capacity of older workers through training lifelong learning, anti-discrimination policies (Ford, 2005b; Hirsch, 2005) Attractive Workplaces (Manninen, 2011) New pathways and meanings associated with work and retirement (Sargent et al 2013)
39 WEF Age-Neutral Workplaces Recognizing the potential contribution of employees at all ages, we will promote an employment environment built on an ageneutral foundation. We will encourage an inclusive environment and discourage agerelated discrimination or hostility.
40 WEF 7 Business Principles 1. Age-Neutral Workplace 2. Supportive Working Environment 3. Inclusive Culture 4. Life-Long Learning and Participation 5. Financial Planning for Longer Working Lives 6. Healthy Ageing 7. Supportive Care-Giving
41 Age Friendly Workplaces Retention & Engagement Strategies Job design Description Design jobs that create a quality person-job fit that accounts for changes across the life course. For example, older workers value autonomy and skill variety. Complex and mentally challenging work is important for mature workers satisfaction and well-being. Flexibility Training and development Creating policies and practices flexible scheduling to address eldercare, grandchild care, part-time or project working, flexi-place working. Promotion of the development and training of mature workers that encourages generativity. Implement training that encourages an inclusive work environment that embraces agediversity. Use language that creates positive images of older workers and fosters interpersonal and intergenerational relationships. Health and well-being promotion Targeted health promotion for mature workers, focussing on relevant issues in terms of gender and occupational demands such as balance, flexibility, sensory requirements. Accommodation Relational management Age-diverse organisational culture Design procedures for accommodation requests in order to proactively manage an agediverse workforce. These may include lighting, ergonomic, grip rails, and other sensory and lift policy changes. Create systems and practices that maintain social connections with workers such as alumni activities, web sites and social media tools. Each of the forementioned strategies facilitates an organisational culture that encourages inclusiveness and engagement of older workers.
42 BMW
43 BMW BMW made 70 small changes in the workplace to cut the chance of errors and reduce physical strain such as: making special shoes, improved tools, new computer screens introduced, put in wooden floors, rest and gym facilities. The project cost $50,000 and improved productivity by 7 percent, below average absenteeism, and the defect rate dropped to zero. It's no longer a project to aid the elderly; it's simply a fresh new plan to improve productivity.

47 Fraunhofer IAO Companies seeking to foster a working environment suited to the changing needs of people as they age have to consider issues such as staff development, further training, how to organize their workforce, knowledge management and preventive healthcare.
48 Creates a Win-Win-Win? Global Population Ageing: Peril or Promise? Statement of the 2011 APEC Ministerial Meeting We welcomed APEC s cooperation with the World Health Organization to develop an APEC Strategy on Aging. We will encourage efforts to develop Age Friendly Economies using innovative policy, practices, and technologies to support healthy lives.
49 Rethinking the Lifecourse
50 We Know What to Do to Save Money prevention rather than reactive intervention reduce cumulative disadvantage community rather than residential care working longer ( an extra couple of years isn t that much- if there are jobs), Universal/age friendly adaptations to the built environment, business innovation to those who can afford age friendly products, create avenues for civic engagement Simon Biggs University of Melbourne Brotherhood of St
51 Aligning to Demographic Change
52 To Work-Life Balance across the Lifecourse
53 Cultural Adaptation Multiple forms of contribution Distinctive phases across a long life Age Diversity in the workplace International competition for older workers Recruitment Retention Prevention (health and cumulative deprivation) Re-thinking Work life balance
54 From sticks, to access to attractive workplaces The first policy response was to fill a long life with priorities from conventional working practice The second was to increase access and reduce discrimination Next will be to adapt workplaces to become older worker friendly and work out what of age-specific contributions might be And what we can learn about the balance for the whole lifecourse
