Dear all,
A quick reminder that we are hosting a UK Social Policy Association funded workshop titled ‘Businesses and Employers in the Welfare Mix; Corporate Welfare, Occupational Welfare and Work: Consolidating and Obscuring Social Divisions’ towards the end of the month at York St John University.
The workshop will take place on Friday 1st February 2019 in Templehall Lecture Theatre and this is a free event to attend.
Supported by the UK Social Policy Association, this workshop is part of an ongoing series to explore the lasting and changing significance of Richard Titmuss’s work for understanding social divisions of welfare. Our first event at the University of Leeds considered the regressive potential of ‘public’ welfare and its implications for intersectional inequalities, this second event will seek to broaden out understandings of ‘welfare’ through examining the role of the market and what ‘occupational’ and ‘corporate welfare’ constitutes in the modern era.
The schedule for the day is as follows:
12:30-1:30 Lunch and Registration (Temple Hall Foyer)
1:30-2:15: Corporate welfare versus social welfare, Dr Kevin Farnsworth (University of York)
2:15-2:45: New Forms of Occupational Welfare, Dr Margaret May (University of Birmingham)
2:45-3:00 Break
3:00-3:30: The History of the UK Job-search – what role for Jobcentres?, Dr Adam Formby (York St John University) and Dr Albert Varela (University of Leeds)
3:30-4:00: Informal Care and the Welfare State, Dr Lisa Buckner (University of Leeds)
4:00-4:30: Panel Discussion and Close
