Examples of potential inequality experienced by different age groups:
Discrimination against carers – By 2026 more than 10% of the population will be over 75 and significant numbers of the workforce age 45+ will have caring responsibilities
Restricted access to the workplace by enforced or incentivized retirement
Limiting health and social care options for older people
Assuming it’s natural for older people to have lower expectations, reduced choice and control and less account taken of their views
Assuming younger people don’t have relevant skills or experience
