Do employment law and immigration policy, including their respective enforcement systems, ensure equality of opportunity and treatment as between migrants and UK resident workers? Are they strong enough to protect migrants against exploitation and more serious forms of abuse in the workplace?<br><br>These questions have become especially urgent with the referendum decision to leave the European Union, not least because of the public concerns over the effects of immigration that contributed to that decision. Substantial labour migration is however likely to continue after Brexit, at all skill levels, given employer demand for workers, and a supply of workers in other countries.<br><br>The central question of the conference will be how to achieve an egalitarian and protective labour market regime, including migration policy and labour standards. If there is a ‘soft’ Brexit, with free movement of persons continuing, labour standards reform, with better guarantees of equal treatment and high standards at work, will be needed in order to ensure public support for migration. If there is ‘hard’ Brexit, with an end to the free movement of labour from other EU countries, public policy will also need to ensure the protection of increased numbers of migrant workers with temporary status, or lacking permission to work.<br><br>The conference will cover migration policy after Brexit, both from the EU and from elsewhere in the world, and the implications of future labour migration patterns for labour standards. The speakers will bring extensive expertise to the subject, as academics, campaigners and trade unionists.<br><br>The conference will build upon previous work by the Institute of Employment Rights on the links between migration and employment law, reflected in earlier publications on Labour migration and employment Rights (2005) and Labour migration in hard times (2013).<br><br>All attendees will receive a free copy of the Institute of Employment Rights' book <a href="http://ier.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f121e48a8bb6d3101590c12d3&id=804f21663b&e=71131c031b">Labour Migration in Hard Times</a> – a collection of essays from some of the UK's leading experts on migration and its impact on labour standards in the context of increased hostility towards migrant labour from some sections of the public.<o:p></o:p></span></p></td></tr><tr><td colspan=3 style='padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#F2E3CE'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=auto-style2><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><a href="http://ier.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f121e48a8bb6d3101590c12d3&id=d99164d1a6&e=71131c031b"><strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Book now to discuss these issues with experts at our 15 March conference</span></strong></a><o:p></o:p></span></p></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%'><tr style='height:30.6pt'><td style='padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm;height:30.6pt'><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%'><tr style='height:9.0pt'><td style='padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm;height:9.0pt'><div align=center><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%'><tr><td style='padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm'></td></tr></table></div></td></tr></table></td></tr></table><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";display:none'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%'><tr><td width="64%" valign=top style='width:64.0%;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt;line-height:normal'><span class=blue1><b><span style='font-size:6.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>To unsubscribe, please contact <a href="mailto:sarah@ier.org.uk?subject=Unsubscribe">sarah@ier.org.uk</a>. </span></b></span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#F2E3CE'><o:p></o:p></span></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%'><tr style='height:9.0pt'><td style='padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm;height:9.0pt'></td></tr></table></td><td valign=top style='padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm'><div align=right><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="88%" style='width:88.0%'><tr><td style='padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:5.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#333333'>Produced by:<br>Institute of Employment Rights,<br>4th Floor, Jack Jones House<br>1 Islington<br>Liverpool L3 8EG<br>0151 207 5265<br><a href="http://ier.us12.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=f121e48a8bb6d3101590c12d3&id=4ba171e3d7&e=71131c031b" target="_blank"><span style='color:#307EC2;text-decoration:none'>www.ier.org.uk</span></a></span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#F2E3CE'><o:p></o:p></span></p></td></tr></table></div></td></tr></table><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";display:none'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%'><tr style='height:12.0pt'><td style='padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm;height:12.0pt'></td></tr></table><p class=MsoNormal align=center style='margin-bottom:12.0pt;text-align:center;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
