The world of work is undergoing profound and rapid evolution, driven by social, technological and economic changes. What are the key current and predicted drivers behind these changes? How might the world of work evolve in the future? What are the implications for people management? How is the shifting nature of work affecting the labour market and the workplace? What are the policy implications? To what extent and in what ways should employment continue to be regulated by law?
Lewis Silkin LLP is pleased to host this inaugural Future of Work Hub event. We’ll bring together prominent opinion leaders and practitioners to explore their perspectives on these issues and you’ll have an opportunity to share your thoughts in world café round table discussions and afterward networking over drinks.
This event was a unique opportunity for senior HR professionals and others in strategic or policy roles to gain key insights from leaders in the field, share perspectives on the changing world of work, consider the key challenges ahead and how HR, business and policy can best adapt to prepare for the future world of work.
