OUBEP Autumn Panel event: 'Has the Labour Market Changed Forever'?


In person and online tickets available

Labour markets around the world have been undergoing profound changes driven by automation and globalisation. But the COVID-19 pandemic brought truly unprecedented changes to our ways of work. Will the labour market return to its pre-pandemic trends or has the pandemic irrevocably altered the trajectory of labour markets? How will workers and businesses adapt? What are the opportunities for creating new ways of working? Answers to these questions will shape societies and economies for decades to come.

For this discussion we will have a panel of experts, moderated by Hamish Low, Head of the Department of Economics at the University of Oxford.

Panelists:

  • Anna Thomas (Institute for the Future of Work)
  • David Zentler-Munro (University of Essex)
  • Peter Lambert (London School of Economics)
