retirement.

Retirement comes as a welcome break for most but for some retiring marks not the end but the beginning of a new way of working.

Retirement comes as a welcome break for most, but for Janie some bad news meant that she found a reason to begin working again.

Ageism in the workplace: how to recognise it and take action.

step back into the working world.

I expected a calm retirement in the countryside, but sadly, it didn’t work out like that.

Retirement might come as a welcome to relief to many but the fact is more and more retirees are returning to work and those approaching retirement age are having second thoughts about what comes next. Part time work is perhaps the best way of remaining in the workforce while enjoying some well deserved rest.

Only 17% of retirees think they'll stop working.
15.5% of men are still in employment at the age of 70.
By 2028 the age at which state pensions start will have risen to 67.
11.3% of women are still in employment at the age of 70.
