Work, Families & Carers
Latest Legislation, Flexible Working and Achieving Work-Life Balance
Wednesday, 7th February 2007

The introduction of the new Work and Families Act reflects the reality of a changing labour market and the need for organisations to adapt if they are to motivate, recruit and retain skilled employees. It is essential for UK employers to be aware of the constantly changing landscape for work, families and carers. The changes in legislation cover maternal and paternal leave, flexible working practices for carers and the enhancement of work-life balance.

Most of the new provisions from the Work and Families Act will be introduced at the beginning of April 2007. This conference is essential for employers to understand how the provisions will be implemented, how they can be compliant with the new regulations and how to reap the benefits and opportunities that work-life balance brings to organisations.
