Fair Work for Wales

Creating a Fair Work Environment

Creating a Fair Work environment helps to make work fairer, safer, and more inclusive – this benefits business and workers. The Welsh Government has published a Guide to Fair Work to help individuals and organisations improve their understanding of what fair work means; why fair work matters; and how fair work can be promoted and advanced.

Businesses of all sizes and in diverse sectors are discovering the benefits of fair work to them and their workforce. Business Wales has support available to assist you in creating a Fair Work environment by helping you understand some practical approaches to embedding Fair Work in your business.

Industry experts have identified six themes for SMEs to understand and work effectively within the Fair Work principles. These themes will contribute to your ability to recruit, retain and develop your workforce, and improve productivity and other aspects of business performance; in addition to promoting fairer outcomes and improved well-being. Each section below concentrates on a theme to support you to make changes to your business to become a Fair Work employer.
