Work and Equalities Institute

Description

The Work and Equalities Institute aims to promote inclusive and fair work and employment conditions. Its research will be utilised in knowledge exchange, dialogues, and debates with key stakeholders and policymakers, as well as to contribute to policy formation and practice development. To accomplish this, the Institute will seek guidance from an advisory board consisting of policymakers and practitioners with expertise at the local, national, and international levels.

There is an urgent need for fresh ideas to tackle the challenges brought about by changes in work, employment, and equalities. The Institute combines two esteemed research centres, namely the European Work and Employment Research Centre and the Fairness at Work Research Centre, both affiliated with the renowned Alliance Manchester Business School. These centres possess international proficiency in various areas such as human resource management, industrial relations, labour economics, organisational psychology, employment law, technology, organisation studies, sociology, and social statistics.

The research agenda of the Work and Equalities Institute will pioneer innovative interdisciplinary approaches to address fundamental policy and intellectual challenges.
