What next for post furlough employment support? The widely feared spike in unemployment due to the end of the Job Retention Scheme has not materialised as new research shows that over 86% of furloughed workers moved back into work. Though reduced, unemployment is still predicted to peak at over 5% this autumn and more than a million job vacancies exist in the economy. Against this backdrop, we invite guest speakers from different sectors to join our webinar to explore the work that they are doing to help people into employment, and help them to progress once they are there.	8/12/2021j/n/Y	09:30 GMT2021-12-08T09:30:00ZH:i T	1.5 hours	Register
