The report calls on the Government to take seriously the democratisation of the places in which we work. If they don't then the gap between our power as consumers and citizens, compared to the sterility of our voice and influence at work will become a chasm.

Furthermore the report argues that people are becoming more autonomous, they want to self-manage their lives and are throwing off the shackles of deference. But power cannot be switched off when they clock on: people have a right to influence how their workplace is run. The report was supported by Prospect and Connect.
