• The international perspective and how this has already been implemented around the globe
• What can be expected for future legislation on this topic
• Is this an opportunity or a red herring?

Rob Shaw, Managing Director at Glu Recruit, commented on the event, “Not only are we excited to see the relaunch of uNetwork, but we’re also thrilled to have Toby Pochron speaking about such an important topic at our first event.

“We’re looking forward to learning more about how ‘The Right to Disconnect’ may look for British businesses and we’re sure it will lead to a very interesting discussion!

“It’s great that we have two new sponsors for this event, both Freeths LLP and Hallam FM and we’re really excited to work more closely with them over the next few months.”
