Line Manager Training
We offer workshops for line managers to raise awareness, build knowledge, and develop skills on age-related workplace topics
An intergenerational workforce drives business growth, yet only half of organisations include age in their Diversity & Inclusion agenda.
With 33% of Scotland’s workforce now over 50, and employment among over-65s at a record high, skills shortages are rising. Yet, only 4 in 10 employers consider hiring people aged 50-64, and fewer than 1 in 5 recruit over-65s.
Line managers shape older workers' experiences. Poor policy implementation due to lack of awareness can increase turnover. By contrast, understanding reasonable adjustments boosts retention and productivity.
We offer in-house training for up to 16 colleagues on the following topics.
