What are the most effective and cost-effective interventions to challenge stereotypes and change employers' and workforce attitudes towards older employees?
- Any explanatory notes
(if applicable) Negative attitudes and stereotyping have led to some older people retiring before they wanted to.

Reducing negative attitudes may also improve mental health and wellbeing and reduce distress arising from exposure to negative stereotyping.
