East of England Employment Relations Forum (EEERF) - in partnership with Acas
The East of England requires a productive and adaptable economy if it is to complete and meet the challenges of the future. Good employment relations underpin this aim. They affect productivity and profits and are vital to the well-being of employees.
Members of EEERF are drawn from employers' organisations, trade unions, employment relations experts, employment lawyers and academics.
The cost of 
membership [1Mb] is £90 a year. This represents excellent valuable as members have the opportunity to attend three conferences a year. Topics are suggested by the members and acknowledged speakers, in the relevant fields are attracted. An employment law up-date, delivered by an employment law specialist, is always included. Over lunch delegates have the opportunity to network.
The cost per conference for non members is £50. Should you then decide to join this sum will be offset against your first year's membership fee.
Whether you employ 5 or 5,000 our conferences provide valuable information on managing employment relations in time of continual change.
