"We say we need older workers, but we still treat them as expendable."

Excellent comment by Prof Kat Riach @uofgasbs.bsky.social on workplace ageism in @TheScotsman - sharing thinking from her new book, ‘Working Through Ageing: Experiencing Growing Up and Older at Work'.

Why workplace ageism costs a lot more than the £3.2 million compensation paid to 'old fossil'
The message from government is that we need to delay retirement and work for longer for the sake of the economy, but ageist attitudes see older people treated as if they were expendable

It's International Day of Older People - so no better time to watch this from Kat Riach @uofgasbs.bsky.social.

Only feels like yesterday when I was youngest in the team -now I'm nearing the upper quartile 🤯 Everyone should feel supported, valued and respected at work, whatever their age.

“There is no simple answer”

@graemeroy.bsky.social addresses concerns about the decline in young people’s wellbeing - evidenced by @uofgasbs.bsky.social @johnsmithcentre.com research - and the impact on Scotland’s economy in @heraldscotland.bsky.social

Scotland can't afford this decline in young people's mental health
The traditional “U-shaped” pattern in wellbeing – where people tend to be happier when young and again in older age – has disappeared
