The Committee took evidence from @unisonscot on workforce issues in local councils as part of its pre-budget scrutiny this week. Maureen Dickson told MSPs that high sickness rates in the local government workforce were no surprise…

We heard examples of what ‘transformation’ looked like in practice in Scotland’s local authorities. @AccCommScot Deputy Chair, Andrew Burns, told the Committee there wasn’t a "one size fits all" solution, but Councils had to take action to meet financial challenges⬇️
