Mature age employment in Australia: what is happening and what can policy do?
This report reviews the evidence on mature age employment outcomes in Australia. It has two main purposes, focusing on the role of attitudinal, financial and structural factors: (1) to review data on trends in labour force participation and employment of mature age workers; and (2) to review theory and empirical evidence on the main determinants of employment outcomes for mature age workers. A range of policy options for increasing employment rates of mature age workers are proposed and evaluated. Mature age employment is defined as employment of workers aged over 45 years.
