It is very difficult to pin down a definition, but Age Concern talk of
'older workers' when they are discussing people who want to work beyond
retirement.
Radio 4 PM last night said something on the lines of someone having
suggested "elderly people should return to work in order to have social
contact" and then morphed straight into an interview with Maud, aged
86.
Despite her evident alertness, I found myself wondering how many
employers are falling over themselves to employ the over 80s?

It ironic -and not a little infuriating that the people comment on the
needs of older people - are never older people.
That includes all the so-called experts who work for corporate
organisations such as Age UK and Saga.
