Description

We are working with the government and employers to create the right conditions for more people over 50 to be in fulfilling work. We are currently leading the Age-Friendly Employer Pledge, a nationwide programme for employers who recognise the importance and value of older workers, and have developed a range of employer facing resources including a five-point framework to help employers create age-friendly workplaces, a Good Recruitment for Older Workers (GROW) toolkit, and a flexible working toolkit.

We want to commission a team to conduct evaluations of both the Pledge and GROW pilots - please see the ITT for more details.

We will be hosting a Zoom webinar on 25 October which will give potential bidders a chance to hear more about the Pledge and GROW alongside our ideas for evaluation. There will also be an opportunity to ask us questions directly about the ITT. This meeting will be recorded and shared on this page following the event so that bidders who are unable to make it can hear what questions/answers were given. As always, clarification questions can also just be sent via email by the deadline highlighted in the ITT.
