Issue No. 4 – May 2010   Chwarae Teg – Agile Nation. Could your business benefit from a fresh approach to working? Are you interested in introducing flexible working or equality and diversity policies but don’t know where to start? Chwarae Teg’s Agile Nation project can help. Agile Nation can offer support to businesses who want to examine the benefits of Equality and Diversity, Flexible Working and Work Life Balance. Research has shown that well managed flexible working can make businesses more efficient, productive and profitable, whether you have two employees or 200. An up-to-date Equality and Diversity policy is now essential if you wish to bid for contracts with the public sector. Our one day workshop, Open the Door to a More Diverse Workforce, will provide you with practical advice on these issues and give you an understanding of your obligations under the law. Our next workshop is in Pontypridd on Monday 10th May 2010. There is no charge.
