Many women fear losing their identity, becoming irrelevant, being bored and lonely, or equate it with being old when they think about retiring. This interactive workshop will help you breakthrough these fears and see the many options and pathways available to women so that you can continue to contribute, shine, and prosper.
Over two million seniors rely on the Age Pension for retirement income, according to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW). Currently, you can start receiving the pension at age 66.5, but by the middle of 2023, you’ll need to be 67 or older.
The Morrison government has directed the Productivity Commission to undertake an inquiry into the potential impact of providing all employees unpaid carers’ leave when caring for senior Australians living at home.
The study will also examine employment models across the aged care sector.
The inquiry is in response to recommendations made by the royal commission into aged care quality and safety in its final report.
