EVENT: Gender Equality Pays research launch

Close the Gap is launching a new report, Gender Equality Pays, which reviews the evidence of the business and economic cases for addressing women’s inequality in the labour market.

The research, which was undertaken by Women in Scotland’s Economy (WiSE) research centre, demonstrates that there is a sound business case for individual employers to take steps to address gender inequality through flexible or agile working, and increasing women's representation at senior levels. The research also finds that there is clear and mounting evidence indicating that gender equality could hold the key to unlocking Scotland’s productive potential in a post-recession economy.

The event will be held at:

10.15am - 11.45am on Friday 22 April 2016
Room A527A
Govan Mbeki Building
Cowcaddens Road
Glasgow G4 0BA

Tea and scones will be available.
