In February 2026, GCOA released an outcomes report from the OECD-GCOA workshop. The report highlights the importance of integrating prevention and workforce wellbeing into core economic and labor policy, with health and wealth viewed as two sides of the same coin. Key calls to action include embedding healthy workforce aging into national economic strategies; scaling prevention and early detection, including life-course immunization; expanding flexible, age-friendly workplace models, including a focus on caregiving and return-to-work policies; strengthening data and cross-sector measurement; and sustaining collaboration across government, business, labor, and civil society to translate evidence into policy.

The report also showcases practical case examples from Japan’s KENKO Investment for Health initiative, GSK’s global Partnership for Prevention, L’Oréal’s multigenerational workforce strategy, Norway’s graded return-to-work model, and Portugal’s LABPATS healthy workplace framework demonstrating that aligning health and economic growth is not theoretical, but already underway.
