Imagine finding the right people for your business every time. People with talent, enthusiasm and invaluable experience. People who are actively looking for new career opportunities - and who demonstrate exceptional levels of reliability and commitment.
That's exactly what you'll discover at Maturity Works.
Our objective? To give you direct access to mature workers over the age of 35, a rich seam of talent that already accounts for more than half the UK workforce. It's all about challenging ageism… promoting diversity...attracting the best qualified candidates...and providing a cost-effective solution to your changing recruitment needs.
A matter of facts
- Ageism is the most common form of prejudice in the workplace and costs the British economy an £31 billion a year.
- By 2010, just 17 percent of the workforce will be aged 18 to 24. Worse, the number of young people reaching working age will fall by a further 60,000 every year after that until 2020.
- The benefits of recruiting older workers are clear:
- - Better staff attendance
- - Lower staff turnover
- - Greater work ethic
- - A wealth of experience
- - A more balanced and representative workforce
Tick. Tick. Tick.
The business case for employing older workers is powerful. But there's another reason, too. European law against ageism comes into force in 2006 - and there will be no ceiling on penalties levied against offending organisations. Using Maturity Works does more than just keep you up to date with developments. It constitutes a very public statement of your commitment to equality of opportunity. It positions you as a forward-thinking company. It sends a positive message to the people who already work for you. And, most importantly of all, it helps you recruit people who can make a real difference to your business.
