Advising on amendment to the Financial Services Bill

Chair of the the Institute for the Future of Work's Patron's Circle Lord Robin Hodgson, and Future of Work Commissioner Lord Jim Knight have tabled an amendment to the Financial Services Bill that would require financial services regulators to consider the impacts of regulation on "good work" through their activities.

The purpose of the amendment is to ensure that organisations providing financial services understand, and give due weight to the importance of creating sustainable, good work across the United Kingdom.

The amendment was drafted by the Institute's Director Anna Thomas, and is founded on the principles of "good work", as set out in the Institute's Good Work Charter.

In this accompanying blog post, we explain the need for investors to consider "good work".
