PLEASE NOTE: the cost of the conference does not include lunch. Places are
limited, with some reserved for the press, so please book early to secure
your place.

This event will be the first IER conference to take place after the general
election, providing an excellent opportunity to assess the new government’s
programme of work. How will workers’ rights fare under a new regime? Which
labour law topics will trade unionists need to be aware of in order to best
protect their members at work? 

There are some issues of course that will remain important regardless of who
wins the election – health and safety and pensions being just two.
Developments relating to both will be outlined and analysed by expert
speakers at this event. We will also hear from other experts – academics,
lawyers and trade unionists – on new cases relating to both whistleblowing
and victimisation of trade unionists.

And a leading trade unionist will share his experiences and suggestions on
the role trade unions play in delivering workplace learning. Joining our
platform for the first time will be a group of psychologists researching the
psychological costs of austerity. They will focus on how this manifests
itself in the workplace and what trade unionists can do to monitor,
alleviate and assist those suffering from austerity linked problems at work.


Speakers include:

*        Hannah Reed, 
TUC

*        Catherine Hobby, 
University of East London

*        Susan Murray, 
UNITE

*        Neil Duncan-Jordan, 
National Pensioners Convention

*        David Sorensen, 
Morrish Solicitors

*        Vanessa Griffin, 
Psychologists Against Austerity

*       Roger McKenzie, 
Assistant General Secretary, UNISON
