Outrageously misleading headline, but interesting article on 4 day week study. Employer did not say its bad for business, rather "it’s difficult for us to commit full time and will look at a more flexible seasonal approach to support the great benefits” telegraph.co.uk/business/2024/…

4 in 10 early years educators are leaving childcare – for good. Pay and progression are known issues. Now, it’s time to start looking at working pattern, too. Read Nicola Pease's blog on our packed Westminster event timewise.co.uk/article/can-fl… #ChildcarePioneers #EarlyYears

Speaking at our event Katy Jones says that progression is so important for lifetime living standards, but a genuine challenge for workers. Moving jobs is risky, and moving sectors even more so. 100% agree from RF - we need to de-risk job mobility.

Speaking at our event, Katy Jones adds that while we talk a lot about bad management practices when it comes to our productivity challenge, often in the abstract, we don't talk enough about how better management could help really staff to progress.

Yesterday we published, as promised, our research into why a minority of former tax credit recipients are not claiming #UniversalCredit. See below for the main report assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/675ad122…

The Health Foundation has published new analysis on mental health trends among working age people and invited me to share some thoughts. Taking a more holistic approach to understanding capacity for work seems to be at the heart of it: health.org.uk/features-and-o…

Low-paid workers are most likely to gain from new provisions in the Employment Rights Bill. Even with these reforms in place, the UK’s labour market is likely to remain less heavily regulated than most other rich countries. Get the RF response here ⤵️ buff.ly/pjHJryr
