WiJS Workshop - How to Navigate Redundancy

Women in Journalism Scotland stands in solidarity with all journalists affected by redundancies.

In light of the news that hundreds of jobs are at risk across multiple media outlets, we are hosting an emergency redundancy support workshop on Zoom.

The first aim of the workshop is to empower attendees and provide information about redundancy processes. You will finish the session feeling clearer on what to expect and what your rights are.

The second aim is to provide support, guidance and confidence about life after redundancy. We will be sharing resources, tips, contacts and advice on how to prepare for the next job or freelancing.

In the session, we will hear from Kirsty Muir, an HR consultant and redundancy expert with 25 years' experience, about what to expect from the redundancy process.

We will also be joined by Natasha Radmehr, deputy editor at Homes & Interiors Scotland, who will speak about her experience of being made redundant in 2020.

There will be 20 minutes at the end for attendees to ask questions of the panel.

The workshop will be hosted by Gabriella Bennett, chair of Women in Journalism Scotland.

The session is FREE and open to ALL.
