                            This webinar, held on 20 May 2020 by the independent think tank The Institute of Employment Rights, asks how we can build a more equal society from the lessons learned during the Covid-19 pandemic.<br>
<br>
Professor Lydia Hayes of the University of Kent discusses her team's research into the disadvantages faced by care workers and the intrinsic link between care quality and employment rights.<br>
<br>
Dr Faiza Shaheen from Class think tank talks about her team's research into the fears working people have over their futures during Covid-19, with one fifth of workers saying they may face unemployment in the coming months due to a lack of long-term planning for the labour market after furlough. She also discusses the importance of recognising the working class as a multi-ethnic group following the emphasis on the 'white working class' during the 2019 election.<br>
<br>
Roger McKenzie, Unison, discusses the hypocrisy of clapping for NHS workers while simultaneously rushing through an immigration bill that puts many of them at a significant disadvantage, as well as addressing the inequalities faced by black workers both before and during the pandemic.
