This report from the Good Work Commission explores what makes ‘good work’ and how we can create more of it. It is based on two key assets: the great breadth of experience and views of the Commissioners and the considerable body of research produced by The Work Foundation over the past decade.

The Work Foundation - Ten Years On
Ten years ago today The Work Foundation was launched at an event in London’s Docklands. It was a bold and, some thought, foolhardy venture. Picking up the baton from its trusted predecessor, The Industrial Society , was always going to be a daunting task. But I’d argue that the vision for the new organisation set out at the time remains compelling and relevant today.
