Access all IES pdf publications free
10 Aug 2015
The Institute for Employment Studies (IES) has opened up access to all its research publications on HR policy and practice, making electronic copies freely available. IES, a leading research institute in the field of people management and employment policy, has a strong publishing tradition stretching back over almost 50 years.
Popular subjects covered by the Institute’s HR research reports include:
- Employee engagement
- Talent management
- Health and wellbeing at work
- Equality and diversity at work
- Leadership
- Organisation design and development
- Workforce planning and labour market change
The move to open up access to all IES reports will mean more potential readers can access the research and use the independent, evidence-based findings on HR topics to improve their own policies and practices. Enabling such improvements is the main thrust of the Institute’s charitable mission.
Institute director, Nigel Meager, commented on the change, saying
‘Whilst most of our research on public employment policy, published by the funders of the research, is already freely available, we are pleased now to release access to all our publications on HR management topics. This will extend the insight and benefits of the Institute’s research to a broader range of readers in the HR world, in line with our charitable objectives to improve policy and practice.’
Popular titles from the Institute, which were previously charged for, include:
- HR in a Disordered World
- The Drivers of Employee Engagement
- What Customers Want From HR
- Effective Talent and Succession Management
- The Engaging Manager
- Practical Methods for Evaluating Coaching
Access all of IES’s research publications
All research funded by the Institute’s HR Network is released exclusively to members of the Network for three months before being made available to the public.
