2021
We are pleased to announce that the breakdown of local authority post types for 2020 was published on Thursday 9th September. The spreadsheets present headcount and WTE (whole time equivalent) data of all filled posts in local authority social work services where those employed do not work in a registered care service. This therefore covers staff working primarily in field social work services.
