Rethinking payday – recruit, retain and do right by your people
Tanya Gosling, Principal Project Manager, Dayforce and Ian Hinchley, Payroll Manager, Milestone Trust
 
While other areas of our lives have evolved to be borderless, fluid, on-demand and real-time, the way we pay people has remained remarkably the same for decades.

Rigid monthly pay cycles do not reflect the on-demand nature of the world we live in now. We’re seeing a new generation of the workforce, mainly millennials, Gen Z, and gig workers, wishing to challenge the status quo with the belief that they should be able to access their pay as it’s earned. 

Employers have a part to play in their employees’ financial wellness, and on-demand pay can help. 
 
Join us with Milestone Trust to discover innovative strategies for modernising payroll practices and empowering your workforce with on-demand pay solutions.

Your 100 year life (sponsored by Now Pensions)
Stefan Lundbergh, Head of Innovation, Cardano
 
Increasing life expectancy means that many people can look forward to living to 100 years. Great news! Well yes, however, there are serious consequences for governments, economies, society and individuals. Populations comprising fewer workers (& taxpayers) relative to retirees will put pressure on the welfare system. Inequalities in society will deepen. Employers will compete in smaller labour markets. Individuals will need to find ways to make their retirement income last longer... whilst maintaining their physical and mental health & wellbeing. This is a pressing global problem where urgent, radical thinking is required
