How do we really know what employees think about their workplace? How do we get employees to be honest about how they feel?

The ageing population is a looming issue in employment and one that needs to climb the corporate agenda; we’re all living longer so could spend longer in work in later life when we are more likely to be unwell. Plus, increasingly, many people have elderly dependents and sandwiched caring responsibilities. What does the data tell us about the future of work with an ageing population and how can employers prepare now for the impact of an ageing workforce? Mark Witte, head of propositions and consulting for the UK health business of Aon, joins us to discuss.

Everyone’s talking about mental health right now, but how do we make sure employees have the right support and employers the right tools to ensure it?
