This conference offers a unique opportunity to hear best practice case studies from leading employers including organisations which were awarded a place on the 2009 Top Employers for working families list. 
 
Learn what makes a top employer. There will be a variety of presentations from forward-thinking employers - employers who are on their journey towards becoming diverse and agile organisations for the 21st century. Hear their latest thinking and initiatives in the areas of flexible working, talent management, fathers and men in the workplace, and supporting employees with childcare and eldercare needs. Delegates will learn how engaging with their employees in this way has enabled them to achieve business success.
 

Delegates will also have the opportunity to hear at first hand full details on the guidelines and entry criteria for the 2010 Top Employers for working families list.
 

Launched in 2009, the list recognises employers whose innovation and farsighted practice have created the flexible and engaging workplaces in which working parents and carers can be most productive.  Appearing on the list ensures that your organisation is regarded as an employer of choice.

CONFERENCE: 
The Older Workforce - Maximising Human Resources in a Downturn

Wednesday 29th September 2010

Hosted by UBS in London

 

This practical conference will look at the drivers for employing older workers - legislation, age discrimination, pensions and demographics and demonstrate the advantages that this group of workers can bring to employers. Best practice case studies will highlight, amongst other topics, maximising human resources in a downturn, enhanced customer service, improved employee engagement, and the importance of retaining institutional memory. This is a topic that you can’t afford to ignore.
