If your business or organisation is transitioning to a hybrid working arrangement, where some employees work at home, and some in the office, or some do part-time at both, then this Q&A is for you.

Dr Shruti Raghuraman shares learning from a toolkit she has been creating with Age UK Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. She highlights some of the common challenges and explains how Age UK have navigated them - and we’d like to hear from you about what the intricacies of creating this kind of work style are for your business, too.

More about the project:

The Inclusivity Project is a joint piece of work bringing together research from the ECEHH at the University of Exeter that collaborates with our partners, Cornwall and Isles of Scilly LEP, Disability Cornwall, Age UK Cornwall, and participates with small and micro businesses in Cornwall.

The Inclusivity Project has worked to generate a better understanding of some of the challenges and opportunities that employers have towards creating inclusive places to work for people who are 50+, disabled, or have a long-term health condition.

Our research and support through our Knowledge Exchange service has empowered SMEs to overcome the challenges and barriers they have faced in their aim to be a more inclusive workplace, both pre and post pandemic.

The Inclusivity Project is part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund
