This is your chance to be ahead of the game! Diversiton invites you to join us in London for the National launch of our 'Age Diversity in the Workplace' training programme on Friday the 22nd September 2006.

As we have just 18 places available you’ll need to respond quickly to reserve your place.

Age Diversity in the Workplace

One Day In-house Course

By 2011, 35% of the population will be over 55 and all of the indicators are that more people will need to continue working in life. Employers will need to consider how they can best become an employer of choice for older workers and how they can retain older workers in an increasingly competitive market-place. Those who don’t will be left behind.

This one day course comprehensively addresses the actions required to ensure full compliance with the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006. The programme also provides practical suggestions on how to develop a workplace that is attractive and responsive to the needs of all workers irrespective of age.

The course which is highly participative includes practical checklists for action.

Key Topics:

• What is ageism is and why does it occur?
• Age Discrimination – implications for employers now and in the future
• The top 10 myths about older workers
• Age Diversity at work – UK Case Studies
• How to achieve an age diverse workforce
• Essentials of the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006
• Practical case study exercises – what would you advise?
• Developing effective employment practice – 5 key areas
• Checking that your organisation is age positive
• Priorities for action
