The New Dynamics of Work ñ The Multi Generational Workforce

On 12th April 2005

At Institute of Directors, 116 Pall Mall, London, SW1Y 5ED

The change in the demographic of the UK workforce and the introduction of new age positive legislation in 2006 brings a range of issues for employers to confront. With a declining birth rate, fewer graduates are entering the workforce for a job for life and employers must look to the older generation to fill the gaps.

This conference brings together experts in employment law, ageing and demography to discuss the consequences of these changes and the steps that must be taken to deal with issues such as retirement and pensions.

What are the implications of these workplace changes?

Are you one of the 94% of organisations that have not yet fully assessed your business for age discrimination?

What steps must you take as a business to tackle issues?

Highlights include:

Baroness Sally Greengross OBE, Chief Executive of the International Longevity Centre in the UK

Keynote speeches from Dr Phil Taylor, Cambridge Interdisciplinary Research Centre on Ageing, University of Cambridge, Michael Willmott, Co-founder of the Future Generation and David Pollard and Kathleen Healy, lawyers from Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer

Workshops run by representatives from BT, Royal Mail, GlaxoSmithKline, TUC and Freshfields on topics including lifelong learning, pension planning, occupational health, strategy into practice and midlife/pre-retirement planning
