The Sustainable WorkLife Conference is for organisations who wish to explore the possible benefits of eWorking: saving on space, facilities and staff commuting time as well as gaining a new way of attracting the best people.

The conference will provide the opportunity to:

  • Learn how to maximise use of scarce facilities.
  • Understand how your organisation can manage work effectively and efficiently to best meet the needs of ALL of the stakeholders.
  • Explore how you can reduce your organisational carbon footprint.
  • Hear from organisations who are already reaping the benefits of eWorking
  • Network with eWorking experts and other key decision makers.

This event, will give an introduction to best practice and the experiences of firms which already have a flexible workforce. Speakers include Peter Madden, Chief Executive of Forum for the Future; Alan Darby of KPMG Midland's People Services Team; Ian Binks of BT; and Dr Simon Slater, Head of Sustainable Development for Advantage West Midlands.
