Abstract

This paper presents the findings of work undertaken to identify opportunities to enhance Good Work for older workers in the South Australian Public Sector who comprise 12% of the workforce in the state. The paper draws on data from a number of sources including: the I Work For SA Your Voice Survey; workforce composition data and Work Health and Safety outcomes to inform the current status of older workers. The paper will also present results of a literature review to identify policy opportunities- including the use of pre-frailty indicators. A draft framework of how tailored interventions might be used to enhance Good Work for older workers is proposed.
