This publication details the trends over time in the economic labour market status of individuals aged 50 and over. We have refreshed the name for the Fuller Working Lives (FWL) agenda to 50 PLUS: Choices. This signals the government’s recognition of the different situations, transitions and challenges currently faced by those aged 50 and over in the labour market.

Analysis is provided on the 3 headline measures announced in the Fuller Working Lives (FWL) Strategy 2017 that the government use to monitor progress on FWL:
