Last year our Trowers Tuesday 'Summer of Inclusivity' received huge amounts of positive feedback and engagement – so much so that we are bringing it back for 2023!
We'll be sharing legal insights and thought leadership on the key issues we've been discussing with HR and people professionals, in-house counsel and other business leaders.
Supporting and empowering older employees
With staff and skills in short supply, it's crucial that employers understand how to attract older employees into the workplace and retain their experience.
Danielle Ingham was joined by Emma Burrows and Martin McFall, and guest speaker Teagan Robinson from Anchor who is an Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Manager. Together, they explored how age-inclusivity can make your organisation stand out, as well as ways to support older employees through tricky phases of life, such as menopause and caring responsibilities.
Understanding neurodiversity in the workplace
Many employers can feel worried about opening up discussions about neurodiversity in the workplace due to lack of understanding.
Danielle Ingham was joined by John Turnbull, Sophie Miller and guest speaker Kate Jackson from AFK. They discussed useful resources, ways to approach the dialogue with confidence and how to pave the way towards creating a neuro-inclusive environment for all.
Managing the changing landscape of gender identity and trans-rights
With the conversation around gender identity and trans-rights ever developing, employers can be unduly focused on potential conflicts and risks.
Danielle Ingham was joined by Nicola Ihnatowicz, Jake Wilkie and guest speaker Lynne Nicholls from Leonis Solutions Limited. They looked at ways to approach the topic in a positive light; implementing meaningful support and respectful practices to ensure that all employees feel seen, heard and valued.
Creating a family friendly culture for parents and would-be parents
The pressures faced by parents and would-be parents in today's working world, including the current cost of living crisis, can have a negative impact on performance and wellbeing.
Danielle Ingham was joined by Vanessa James, Vikki Cunliffe and guest speaker Kate Davies from Your Fertility Journey. They shared tips on how to create an environment that supports employees at every stage of their journey and offers practical help for individual challenges.
