NICE WORK MISSED A PROGRAMME? Go to the Listen Again page PROGRAMME INFO Tuesdays 16:00-16:30 Nice Work is Radio 4's essential guide to working life in Britain today - we aim to cut through the jargon to get to the heart of what matters. Email the programme at nicework@bbc.co.uk LISTEN AGAIN Listen to Nice Work for 8 July 2003 PRESENTER PHILIPPA LAMB "Presenting Nice Work is fascinating because of the wide range of stories you hear, and the people you get to meet. Not only do we cover the big picture trends and theories, we get up close to the real experience of work, from the people who actually do it. Over the next six weeks we'll be looking at the pros and cons of work experience; investigative claims that Britain is fast becoming a nation of malingerers and updating you on disability issues. We'll also be looking into the spiritual side of working life and finding out about the help available for people who want to return to work after a lengthy career break."
