"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."

Living Wage
Two years ago Nice Work reported on the start of a campaign to establish a living wage in London. There are currently hundreds of thousands of cleaning, catering & security staff earning no more than the minimum wage which is not enough, according to campaigners, to cover the costs of living in the capital. This week Nice Work asks what has been achieved since then.
Dyslexia
Six months ago Nice Work asked how many undiagnosed dyslexics there are in the workplace. This week we ask whether companies really understand what form dyslexia takes. Most might assume that reading & writing are the issues that need dealing with, yet for many of the 2.5m working dyslexics the real problems are short-term memory loss and organisational skills.
