Nearly a year on since the lifting of all Covid restrictions, employment levels in the UK have not returned to pre-pandemic levels, instead sinking to lows not seen since the 1970s. Where have all the workers gone and how do we bring them back?
To discuss these issues, we are pleased to welcome a first-rate cast of speakers for an online panel event chaired by CPS Senior Researcher Karl Williams.
