Mature age workers

The Queensland Government values older workers and recognises their valuable contribution to public sector workplaces through the Experience Pays awareness strategy.

The Public Service Commission, in partnership with the Department of Employment and Industrial Relations, is working with public service agencies to recruit, retrain and retain mature-age workers. Success stories are documented in case studies which are available on our Publications page.

For further information on how to analyse and respond to ageing workforce issues in your agency, look at:
