A masterclass in how to prepare for the flexible working bill to become law in 2024
Cost to attend this virtual masterclass: £199 per delegate
Are you a leader trying to prepare for the change in flexible working legislation in 2024?
The law around flexible working in the UK is changing. From spring 2024 millions of British workers will gain the right to request more flexibility over where and when they work from day 1 (changing from 26 weeks) of their employment as the Flexible Working Bill becomes law.
Drawing on our extensive experience working with a plethora of UK businesses helping them to embrace flexibility, in this highly engaging and interactive workshop we will help you to understand the implications of the law change and share evidence-based actions and approaches as we guide you to develop a plan that will really work for your business.
Our commitment to you is that you will leave this masterclass feeling energised, inspired and with all the clarity you need to design your own roadmap that will supercharge engagement, productivity, wellbeing, talent acquisition, retention and profitability.
You will learn:
- What flexible working really is (and why it is possibly not what you think it is!)
- What the law change could mean for your business and the workforce
- How to increase diversity in job applications, recruitment and hiring
- How to make flexibility work in place-based roles where remote working isn’t an option
- How to make the office a magnet and not a mandate
- How to gain and most importantly maintain leadership and colleague buy in
- How to equip managers with the skills and capabilities to drive exceptional performance by leading with inspiration and empathy
- How to create a strong culture while your people are working in flexible ways
- How to develop a plan to prepare for the flexible working law change and make it work for your business, your current and future workforce.
