Keywords:Providing a summary of the full report ‘Research review of OSH issues and the ageing workforce’, this publication outlines the context in which the review was undertaken: the ageing workforce in Europe. It details the key findings in relation to the three main questions examined in the review: (1) ‘What changes occur in ageing individuals?’, (2) ‘What are the implications of these changes throughout working life?’ and (3) ‘What OSH measures could promote sustainable work throughout working life?’.
