Call for External Collaborator – Development of policy brief on Working Conditions, Disability and Discrimination for older workers, INTERGEN Project/EMPLOYMENT

Dear Bidder, The International Labour Office (ILO) is looking for an individual to undertake work as an External Collaborator. Below is a summary of the work to be performed: The work consists of preparing a thematic brief examining working conditions, disability and discrimination in relation to older workers’ labour market participation. The brief will analyse how these interconnected and mutually reinforcing factors shape labour market outcomes at older ages, including how inadequate or unadapted working conditions contribute to health deterioration and disability, and how age-based discrimination affects hiring, retention, promotion and access to workplace adaptation. The brief will examine the policy and regulatory landscape related to occupational safety and health, equality and non-discrimination, and disability inclusion, and identify key barriers affecting older workers across gender, sector and income group. It will review evidence on effective workplace-level interventions, regulatory approaches and institutional arrangements. The work will draw on international literature, relevant datasets and country-level examples, and develop practical policy recommendations for governments, employers and workers’ organisations. If you are interested, please express interest and follow the instructions attached to consult the detailed terms of reference and other relevant information in the ILO e-sourcing platform. Please submit your proposal before the specified deadline. Thank you.
