Our work

Our work

We put people first. The Institute for the Future of Work explores how people experience the impacts of technological change on work and develops practical solutions for a fairer future. 
‍
Our work demonstrates how 'good work' promotes wellbeing and prosperity in a time of disruption, secures equality at work in the face of technological change and puts working people at the heart of shaping the future of work.

Changing work

Good work builds resilience to economic and health shocks and helps mitigate the risks of technological change. We’re exploring how technology is changing the nature and quality of work, and making sure better work is central to meeting the challenges we face.

Power

New technologies offer vast opportunities but the risks and rewards are not evenly shared. We’re working to ensure technological change reduces rather than exacerbates structural inequalities, creating safeguards to promote people’s equality, dignity and autonomy at work.

People

Rapid change is reshaping people’s experience of work. We put people first and are demonstrating how to ensure workers’ perspectives can help shape the response to technological disruption.
