The third Fairness at Work Research Centre (FairWRC) International Conference aims to bring together academics and practitioners to discuss issues on the subject of fairness at work in what remains a challenging environment politically and economically. It will centre on how initiatives in terms of good employment practices (eg the use of labour standards and trade union responses to change) are being influenced or undermined by the current environment.

The conference will contribute to our understanding of the challenges facing such initiatives and how organisations are responding to the hostile and uncertain context we live in, especially given highly complex global networks and structures in terms of production and service delivery.

The questions of equality, social inclusion, worker participation and worker health – and their enforcement – are ongoing concerns regardless of the changes taking place.

Registration for this event is now open. Book now. http://confercare-online.co.uk/browse/extra_info.asp?compid=1&modid=2&deptid=10&catid=13&prodid=26

Price: £60-180

Concessions: £50 - 80
