Join our online conference – Keep a lid on staff costs

Losing staff costs money. Lots of money. So does unproductive staff. And absent staff. What if this could be reversed?

Join us online on Tuesday 21st May, 9.30am – 10.45am, for a free session looking at how two Buckinghamshire companies have addressed these issues, including greater support for the neurodiverse and new ways of sourcing recruits.

You will hear from Anushka Davies about how Softcat became a top three company to work for in Buckinghamshire.  And from John Wallbank on how Fairhive Homes has achieved a significantly below average staff turnover.

Supported by Buckinghamshire Council, Buckinghamshire Business First, Your Local Growth Hub and Buckinghamshire Children and Young People Partnership, this online conference is one not to be missed.
