Value experience at work

Anne-Marie Guillemard talks about the question of pensions from the angle of the employment of seniors. For her, it is the actual exit age of the labor market which must be rejected, instead of concern for a legal age which does not correspond to the reality of situations. Increasing the employment rate of seniors requires a revolution in representations and an approach to social protection that adapts to life paths.
