These tables look in detail at the adults' services workforce in Scotland. They supplement data already published in the Scottish Social Service Sector: Report on 2018 Workforce Data.
Publication of 2018 LA post type data
19
Dec
2019
We are pleased to announce that the breakdown of LA post types for 2018 was published on Thursday 19th December (available here). 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.
