Join us on International Women’s Day as the Good Employment Charter brings together organisations and industry leaders for a special event!

Join us this International Women’s Day as the Good Employment Charter brings together organisations and industry leaders for a special event focused on driving real change in the workplace. This is an opportunity to learn from experts, share experiences, and explore what practical steps can be taken to create fairer workplaces for everyone.

The theme for this year is ‘Give to Gain’, which emphasises the power of reciprocity and support. When people, organisations, and communities give generously, opportunities and support for women increase.

You’ll gain valuable insights and learn about the actionable steps you can take to help you build a more inclusive and supportive work environment. The event will focus on real examples of policies and practices that make a difference, giving you the ideas and tools you need to implement changes in your own organisation.

Our keynote speaker, Rachel Mostyn (Co-founder, Women’s Work Lab) will explore how she went about setting up Women’s Work Lab, and how they support mums into the workplace through placements and one to one coaching.

We’ll host two panel discussions, led by Judy Campbell (Project Officer – Climate & Nature Delivery at the West of England Combined Mayoral Authority), where we will explore the barriers women-led organisations and charities face.

The second panel discussion will focus on how to be an ally to women in the workplace.

We have a dedicated networking session during the event, giving attendees an invaluable chance to connect with other businesses across the region. You’ll be able to ask advice, form new partnerships and meet other like-minded professionals who are committed to good employment practices.

The day will finish with two interactive talks:

• A Programme Manager from Women’s Work Lab will go into detail about how they secure work placements for mums and share testimonials.
• Helen Thomas from HR Dept will share practical HR policies to address gender equality in the workplace.

This event is for everyone. Creating a fair and supportive workplace isn’t just about policies for women; it’s about building environments where everyone can thrive. Whether you’re an employer, a manager, or an employee who wants to drive positive change, your voice and involvement matter. Join us and be part of the conversation.
