Work Futures Research Centre (WFRC)

Description

Through the centre's network of internationally recognized researchers, the centre tackles some of the most pressing challenges facing the world of work, both paid and unpaid, from digital labour to social care, work organizations across the private, public and third sectors and employees whether on salaries, contracts or unemployed. The members are interested in diversity within labour markets, whether through gender, race and ethnicity, social class, educational background, age, sexual orientation or geographical location, drawing their expertise from disciplines ranging from social science, Webscience, health, education and business.

Their members have published widely in academic and policy and practice formats. Their expertise covers both the UK and international labour markets, and they specialize in developing innovative ways to understand and solve problems and provide strategic and tactical intelligence to their partners.
