Conceptualising Older Women’s Wellbeing at Work Across the Life Course

Edge, Clare; Drew, Hilary

Abstract

This developmental paper outlines planned research on how women across generations of adulthood conceptualise themselves growing old and examines their experiences of externalised and internalised gendered ageism. The study also aims to explore the factors that facilitate and inhibit wellbeing across the life course and to understand how ageing women navigate their workplace wellbeing at different points in lives. The paper introduces the [REDACTED] network, which is a European-wide research network that plans to undertake this research cross-nationally.
