This half day seminar focuses on the many factors which drive older workers’ labour market participation. This seminar is delivered from the older worker’s perspective. It has been developed with the assumption that older workers’ Unions are involved in advocating, advising and implementing work practices as these workers’ needs change as they move into another phase of their life cycle.

This resource includes everything you need to run the seminar.

Young Workers in Precarious or Insecure Work Guide

Is the job you’re applying for going to guarantee you the income you need? There are many types of jobs out there, and some will not provide you with a regular and realistic income. These jobs are called ‘precarious’, both because the job itself can be precarious in its nature i.e. unsafe or prone to change; but also because your life can become precarious as a result of the job.

This  is a guide with case studies and resources useful for young workers.
