The Age and Employment Network (TAEN) is collaborating with the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) to establish an international award scheme for employers with the best policies for workers over the age of 50. 

Employers will be evaluated by an international panel of judges with wide business experience and winners will be chosen on the basis of key aspects of policy. Organisations have until 1 May 2008 to apply.
