Skills and healthy workforce

Building the skills and healthy workforce the future economy needs

We create a trusted space for leaders to tackle workforce challenges, from skills gaps and economic inactivity to building a healthy, diverse and future-ready workforce.

The UK's economic future depends on a skilled, healthy and engaged workforce, yet the levers needed to build it sit across government, business and civil society in ways that are rarely joined up. 

 

This series focuses on the shared challenges that no one sector can solve alone: from closing skills gaps and addressing labour market inactivity, to building the conditions for a healthier, more productive workforce. The conversations are designed to generate practical cross-sector dialogue, helping leaders across government, business and the voluntary sector to think differently, act collaboratively, and lead more effectively on the workforce challenges that matter most.

 

  • Closing skills gaps and equipping the workforce, including those furthest from employment, with the capabilities the future economy demands requires joined-up action across government, employers, and education providers. 

  • Delivering NHS reform, the government's health plan, and the investment needed to support it will be central to building a preventative approach to health that keeps people in work and reduces long-term economic inactivity. 

  • Addressing the structural challenges of the labour market, from economic inactivity to upskilling needs, in ways that drive growth and benefit all sectors will require sustained cross-sector collaboration and policy coherence.
