The Forum on Family-Responsible Companies organized by the International Center of Work and Family (ICWF) presents the latest advances and trends in balancing professional and personal life. The forum focuses the issue through a multidisciplinary lens, combining perspectives from the business world, academic circles and public administrations.
This 4th Forum will take place immediately following the 2nd International Conference of Work and Family and features the participation of internationally renowned academic experts. In the course of the event, results from the IFREI 2007 study will be announced, highlighting the adoption and implementation of work-family balance policies in Spain, as well as its evolution in the last few years.
The Forum will end with a roundtable discussion in which executives from companies promoting these policies will explain their experiences and share with the audience the steps taken towards becoming a Family-Responsible Company.
This session is aimed at CEOs, managing directors, HR directors, public administration representatives and other agents of change who are seeking to improve their organizations in the area of work-family balance.
Simultaneous translation (Spanish to English and English to Spanish) will be provided in each session.
