The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) has released a new survey demonstrating that older workers are often neglected when it comes to training and performance management. It highlights the need for employers to ensure they are managing the performance of all employees effectively, particularly before the final phase out of the Default Retirement Age (DRA).

Recent research has revealed that ageist attitudes are endemic in the workplace. The Government may be encouraging older people to work longer, but Britain’s young adults want them out of the workplace.
