to the Summer issue of Regional Insights - our quarterly update for our Northern CIPD members – and happy LGBT+ Pride Month! Welcome
Championing good and fair Northern employers As organisations continue to adapt to new ways of working, my team and I are enjoying connecting with forward-thinking employers - including Leeds City Council, Durham University, Damart and Mersey Care – to deliver sessions on professional development, membership, and insights on the future of work. We were delighted to celebrate more employer excellence in our region at the Good Employment Awards 2023 – hosted by the Greater Manchester Good Employment Charter. As a proud sponsor, we presented Ingeus with the ‘Partner of the Year’ accolade. Find out more about the winners on our news page. Engage with our latest work, activities and team Later this month we are launching our first ever Northern Good Work Index report – a benchmark of job quality in the North – so look out for that on our new-look homepage . The report will provide a range of insight on which sectors and occupations have the best work-life balance, health and wellbeing and job security, amongst other factors.
We recognise there are still key barriers that LGBT+ people face in the workplace, so we’ll be sharing our range of free inclusion resources across the month to encourage employers to create safe, accepting and inclusive environments for all LGBT+ employees. Inspiring interviews and regional networks In this issue, inspiring HR and people professionals tackle a range of topics including how to create more neurodiversity-smart workplaces, and how to improve the financial wellbeing of your people to create a happier, healthier workforce. You’ll also find out more about our new Independent Consultants Network, along with our other regional forums and networks, and their upcoming activities, to help you connect with your peers, share knowledge and support your development.
