In 2022 , just under 400,000 more adults aged 50-64 had become economically inactive compared with before the pandemic.
Many either retired early, developed long-term health conditions, or were made redundant.
This is one of the factors, along with Brexit , driving the UK ’s labour crisis.
800,000 over-fifties are currently unemployed but would like to return to work.
Think tank Demos commissioned a survey of 1,068 people aged 55-75 and a series of focus groups to find out the views of that age group on work.
Demos believes people should be supported so that they don’t leave the workforce earlier than they want to.
