The pandemic has changed how and where we work dramatically. The workplace isn’t what it used to be and continues to evolve.

In recognition of this shift, we gathered senior business leaders from a variety of sectors across the UK to discuss and understand what businesses are, and should be doing now, to attract, engage and retain a future-ready workforce. The results of these discussions can be found in the third instalment in our Future Chemistry series: The Balancing Act – Remaining an Employer of Choice in the Ever-Evolving Workplace.

From hybrid working and the importance of ESG, to recruitment and retention, this report summarises the principal trends and identifies key actions for boards and senior management teams on how to tackle the current challenges and opportunities, in order to become an employer of choice.

You can view the whole report here.

Please do get in touch if you wish to discuss any aspect of what we have covered.
