Look what past participants had to say...
"I was involved. It was what I wanted to do. Not just 'Go for that job', but look for something that you want to do." Male in his 50s on Workwise
"I liked the profiling about the job preferences and written analysis. It was worth going for that alone. Very useful to my CV." Male in his 50s on "Its about you"
"The people were terrific and this chap took me through the e-Porfolio. I really enjoyed that." Male in his 50s on Exeter CVS
"[It gave me] the self confidence to say that being self-employed was what I wanted and making that decision." Female in her 50s on SEESAM
"It made me look at other options. I had always worked in factories before and [the project] gave me the confidence to try something new. I learnt how to use a computer and I didn't realise how much work is done on a computer."
Male in his 60s on Workwise
" A big thank you because I would not be working now without SWOOP." Female in her 50s on Workwise
The Age Legislation came into effect on 1st October 2006.
It affects how employers recruit, train, promote and retire staff.
Here at SWOOP, we believe that promoting an ‘age friendly’ workforce is more than just a legal standpoint, it’s better for business.
Read more about a recent age discrimination success case.
We’re interested to know if you feel you’ve ever been discriminated against due to your age.
We issue newsletters periodically to all of our subscribers.
Make sure that you keep informed of all the latest news, events and website updates absolutely FREE!
SWOOP is part-funded by the European Social Fund under the EQUAL Community Initiative Programme and by the South West of England Regional Development Agency
