Description
On the 15th of February 2015, the Partnership organised a Policy Forum on the topic of ‘decent work’ – the aim was to listen to what representatives from community groups, academic experts, and trade unionists could say about job quality and in how far ‘decent work’ is or is not a reality for all in Scotland.This Policy Forum marked the beginning of the Partnership’s 2016/17 project ‘Decent Work in Scotland’ which culminated in a number of reports, the main one being ‘Decent work for Scotland’s low paid workers – a job to be done’.
