The IPA exists to promote the involvement and participation of employees in their places of work, and through doing so improve the quality of working lives. The IPA is Britain's leading organisation delivering partnership, consultation and employee engagement in the workplace. Through our research and practice we develop new ways of working, based on trust and collaboration, that deliver better workplaces and better outcomes – employee wellbeing, increased productivity and improved services. IPA is a not-for-profit organisation, funded by membership subscriptions and fee income from consultancy and training services. We are one of few ‘open spaces’ in the UK where employers, trade unionists and other workplace representatives, academics, legal experts, human resource and employment specialists can come together with politicians and policy makers to discuss and debate employment issues and policy.
