HR People Pod – Ep 26: Getting Britain working - UK Employment Minister Alison McGovern

The Get Britain Working white paper outlines a bold vision to tackle economic inactivity and raise the UK employment rate to 80 per cent. But what does this mean for the people profession? In this episode of the HR People Pod, we put key questions from the CIPD Community to Alison McGovern, Minister for Employment. We explore the UK government's plans to transform Jobcentres, support people on long-term sick leave to return to work and deliver on the promise of a new ‘youth guarantee’.CIPD Director of Profession, David D’Souza, is joined by Alison McGovern, Minister for Employment.Recorded at CIPD Festival of Work: 12 June 2025
