Our work to champion better work and working lives takes on a number of guises. We set professional standards and support our members to make a real impact on the work and working lives of the people and organisations they work with. And through our independent research and insights, we influence policy and practice to ensure that work benefits everyone - making us a trusted adviser to individuals, employers, media and policy makers.
