The aim of the Workforce Skills Reports (WSRs) is to bring together data on the sector's workforce, uptake of relevant qualifications, and data on service users along with broader information on drivers of change (e.g. developments in policy) in order to identify key workforce development challenges for the sector.
This year we have created 4 separate but related reports as follows:
| Service trends and their workforce implications | Download (PDF, 0.8MB) |
| Qualifications and training provision in the social service sector in Scotland | Download (PDF, 0.9MB) |
| Key policy drivers and skills challenges for the sector | Download (PDF, 2.3MB) |
| A stakeholder report which examines key messages from employers and summarises the themes from these and the first three documents | Download (PDF, 1.3MB) |
Please note that the workforce data within these reports comes from December 2012 and is as published in the revised 2012 workforce data report (available here).
The SSSC has also recently published a report which examines the workforce as of December 2013 (available here).
