Wales at Work, Thursday November 24th, 7 PM.

On Tuesday the Chancellor, George Osborne, will be making his autumn statement - outlining the prospects for the economy and telling us how the Government is tackling the deficit. One key issue for the economy is growth, but what can the Chancellor do to get business going?

Thousands of people will be out on strike next Wednesday as the public sector workers take industrial action over proposed changes to their pensions. We'll discuss how Wales' biggest employer - the NHS - will cope with so many on the picket line.

The BBC Wales' drama Baker Boys, about the co-operative buy-out of a Valley bakery, is back on air tonight. The factory is finding the going tough, but just how difficult it is to run a co-op?

And our business of the week is one of the UK's biggest holiday home companies, Haulfryn, that took the big step of buying itself back into family ownership.
