	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/09/2017 answer text <p>The Government is committed to supporting people aged 50 years and over to remain in and return to work. The number of older women in work is now at a record high: there are around 1 million more women aged 50+ in work than in 2010.</p><p> </p><p>Government has reformed legislation to create the right framework to support Fuller Working Lives. We have removed the Default Retirement Age, meaning it is now unlawful to dismiss someone just because they reach age 65.</p><p>We have also extended the right to request flexible working beyond those with caring needs, meaning people can discuss with their employers options for allowing choice about how and when they retire. And we have introduced pensions freedoms, to allow people aged 55 and over greater freedom and choice in how and when they access their pension savings.</p><p> </p><p>On 2 February 2017 we published Fuller Working Lives: A Partnership Approach, which aims to increase the retention, retraining and recruitment of older workers by bringing about a change in the perceptions &amp; attitudes of employers, and to challenge views of working in later life and retirement amongst individuals. The Strategy and supporting evidence base are available at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/fuller-working-lives-a-partnership-approach" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/fuller-working-lives-a-partnership-approach</a>.</p><p> </p><p>We have also appointed a Business Champion for Older Workers, Andy Briggs, supported by a team of employers at Business In The Community, to support employers in retaining, retraining and recruiting older workers. In February 2017, the team launched a target to gain one million more older people in work by 2022, asking employers to commit to a pledge to publish their workforce data by age. Their report setting out their achievements to date was published on 07 September 2017 and can be viewed at <a href="https://age.bitc.org.uk/issues/BusinessChampion/govreport" target="_blank">https://age.bitc.org.uk/issues/BusinessChampion/govreport</a>.</p> answering member constituency Hexham answering member printed Guy Opperman question first answered 12/09/2017 13:31:54 answering member 4142 label Biography information for Guy Opperman
