Not over the hill – too skilled to stop: Council backs over-50s workforce

Comments Off on Not over the hill – too skilled to stop: Council backs over-50s workforce

North Lincolnshire Council is set to sign the national Age-Friendly Employer Pledge, recognising the experience and contribution of workers aged 50 and over and committing to helping people build fulfilling, flexible careers later in life.

The move is part of the council’s ongoing work to create a modern, inclusive workforce that reflects the communities it serves. It supports flexible working, lifelong learning and progression opportunities for employees at every stage of their careers.

By keeping valuable experience and knowledge in the workplace, the council is helping strengthen local services and the wider North Lincolnshire economy – ensuring that skills, confidence and opportunity continue to grow across generations.

Cllr Rob Waltham, leader of North Lincolnshire Council, said: “A thriving workforce reflects its community. Valuing experience and keeping people in work for longer is good for families, good for the local economy and good for public services.

“This pledge shows that we’re serious about helping people continue to contribute, learn and achieve at every age.”

Cllr Elaine Marper, cabinet member for transforming the customer journey, said: “Our residents don’t stop contributing at 50 and neither should opportunity.

“We’re removing barriers, offering flexibility and showing what an age-inclusive employer looks like. It’s about recognising that experience is one of our greatest strengths.”
