Flexible Working: a strategic approach to increase productivity and tackle skill shortages. Digital event via Zoom. 12 May, 09:30-13:00

A recent Acas survey found that half of employers in Great Britain expected an increase in demand for flexible forms of working from employees, including hybrid options.

However, there is growing evidence to suggest that there remains a significant mismatch between employees’ preferences towards different types of flexible working and employers’ offerings, leading to various degrees of costly workplace conflict.

The benefits of flexible working are often seen as “all pro-employee” when there are actual real business benefits too.

Join Acas and guest speakers at this digital conference as we:

  • discuss how flexible working, including hybrid working, can be a creative approach to increase productivity, tackle skill shortages and improve workplace equality.
  • explain the legal consideration and requirements.
  • provide a case study on introducing a scalable, flexible work request tool including; consultation, benefits and challenges.
  • provide advice and practical tools to support flexible work options.

Speaking at this event will be:

  • Susan Clews, Acas: Chief Executive 
  • Matilda Quiney, TUC: Head of Management Services and Administration 
  • Stephanie Elton, HS2: Senior Employee Relations Manager
  • Craig Ludlow, 3PB: Head of Employment and Discrimination Law Team
  • Maggie Steven, Acas: Senior Advisor 
  • Panel Discussion –This event will include a panel discussion from all speakers where we will discuss key points and questions raised during the event.
