OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This event is Seminar 3 in DSPI’s Hilary Term Seminar Series.
In this talk Professor Picot will present the findings from a five-year research project he just concluded. The project centred on the politics of statutory minimum wages, but accounted also for closely related policies, in particular regulation of collective bargaining and in-work benefits. Professor Picot will address the normative justification of minimum wages, the variation of low-wage policies across developed countries, and the politics and reasons behind that variation.
Booking is required for people outside of the Department of Social Policy and Intervention (DSPI).
DSPI Members do not need to register.
