Our work

Our work

At IFOW we believe that good work is the best way to build a good society. We are currently seeing technology rapidly changing the nature, quality and distribution of work, bringing new opportunities – and new risks – to people’s ability to access good jobs, and thus our ability to build a good society in which all people can flourish. The three pillars of our work at IFOW represent the ways that we are approaching this challenge.

Changing work

The risks and rewards of transition are not equally spread, meaning that structural inequalities are increasing. We are tackling those structural inequalities to ensure that the technological transition advances prosperity and wellbeing for everyone.

Shifting Power

New technologies are driving big shifts in power and challenging traditional mechanisms of governance and accountability at work. We are working to strengthen accountability mechanisms to safeguard good work through this technological transition.

Prioritising People

People's lived experience, values and agency are being neglected in shaping futures of work. We are working to forefront these to help shape transitions to good, fulfilling local work.
