Explore and synthesize complex legal, policy, and research aspects of critical age-work-related issues. Some provide information that can help state leaders examine the connection between aging and work and how the changes in the labor force participation of older adults affect individual states. Others provide a general overview of the policy context of a particular country, including the major legislation affecting quality of employment. These country context policy briefs also include a contextual focus providing further insight into the dynamics of employment and policy within that country.
