The closure of Billingsgate and Smithfield markets in London could present several HR-related issues, primarily related to employee displacement and job security. Workers, many of whom might have long-standing roles in these markets, could face uncertainty regarding their futures. Chris Hayward, policy chairman of the City of London Corporation - owner and operator of both markets: “We’re committed to making sure they have the financial support and guidance they need to transition seamlessly and successfully to new locations.” Whilst financial support is being offered, specific HR-related support measures for individual traders have not yet been extensively detailed. https://lnkd.in/eDN6GcXa #HRsupport

Change and Planning are at the heart of this mornings announcements. My top 5 take away points: 1. National Planning Policy Framework Updates: mandatory targets for new homes back in place and greater weight given to economic benefits from development. 2. On shore wind and energy projects being prioritised as Infra Structure. 3. Green Belt reviews capturing all opportunities including the yet undefined Grey Belt. 4. Unlocking major stalled sites including Central Liverpool Docks. 5. New officers in to under resourced Local Planning Authorities Change can be uncomfortable but affecting positive change is the definition of a planners role, and with applications and decisions at an all time low - something has to change. The team Eden Planning & Development Ltd can support and help you grasp the opportunities.

Buzzing room for the launch of the Business4Bakerloo campaign with Field Consulting UK this week. Wise words from Seb Dance Richard Palmer Chris Hogwood Cllr Kieron Williams Mili Patel Alex Williams James Potts and others on the economic and social benefits of extending the Bakerloo line to Lewisham and beyond. This single project has the scope to unlock sites for close to 10% of the Government's 1.5 million housebuilding target for this Parliament, with the cost of the scheme paying for itself in a matter of years through its delivery of £1.5bn in annual economic value add. That much-needed growth would be spread widely, via a UK-wide supply chain which would encompass world-leading manufacturing facilities across the country. With the Department for Transport (DfT), United Kingdom reviewing capital spend as part of its new strategy published on Thursday, backing an upgraded, extended Bakerloo line which can drive home, job and business creation is a no-brainer 🚆

It's #ManufacturingMonth here in Illinois and there is no better place to be if you want to Make It. There are loads of rewarding career opportunities and tons of ways to get exposure to pathways and industries. If you're thinking about switching careers, I can even help get a tour of a factory here in Greater Peoria so you can see what a day in the life is like! Do work that you can see. Do work you can touch. Do work you don't have to take home at the end of the day. There's a reason burnout happens way less for workers in manufacturing!
