Age and Employment reports 2011
Older Workers Statistical Information Booklet
The Older Workers Statistical Information Booklet provides data on the position of older people in the labour market in 2011, with the majority of data covering Quarter Two, April-June 2011. The booklet compares outcomes for older people (aged 50-64 or 65+) with outcomes for other age groups at a United Kingdom and regional level. The booklet offers a range of data including employment, unemployment and inactivity, employment types, qualifications, industry and occupation. Key statistics are compared by age, gender, ethnicity and disability.
This series has been published as fulfilment of a Government commitment to publish information on employment statistics for older people, and this year we ask readers for their views on whether this booklet is useful, or if readers have any opinions on whether different information or changing how information is presented could improve the publication. Any views are asked for by 31 May 2012 and can be emailed to older.workers@dwp.gsi.gov.uk, or posted to Older Workers Statistical Information Booklet, Redefining Retirement Division, Caxton House, Tothill Street, London SW1H 9NA.
