Frontline Worker Effective Voice Event – 1 October 2024

Frontline Worker Effective Voice Event – 1 October 2024

Workforce Matters Frontline Worker Effective Voice Event 

“Empowering Voice: Amplifying the Social Care Workforce”
1st October 2024
9:30am – 3:30pm

Effective voice requires a safe environment where dialogue and challenge are dealt with constructively and where employee views are sought out, listened to and can make a difference – Fair Work Convention

With current sector pressures and workforce challenges it has never been more important to ensure that the voice of the frontline worker is being heard and listened to. Workforce Matters would like to invite you to join us for a national event that will focus on the experiences of the frontline social care workforce.

This event will support the workforce to give feedback on the matters that impact them every day. This includes elements of their roles that they would like to keep or change which enables Scottish Care to accurately inform Scottish Government and key social care policy makers.

There will also be the opportunity to hear more about the Scottish Government’s Fair Work Effective Voice pilot as well as how union resources can support social care employers and employees in relation to effective voice.

Interactive workshops have been planned with key questions that aim to gather your thoughts and opinions around important topics including Fair Work, learning and development delivery methods, social care regulation and many others. We would like to hear about all your thoughts, feelings and experiences working in social care!

This workforce event will take place on Tuesday 1st October 2024 between 9:30am and 3:30pm at:

Edinburgh Training and Conference Venue
16 Saint Mary’s Street
Edinburgh
EH1 1SU

This event is open to all frontline social care workers across the sector.  Please save this date in your diaries. Event programme will follow shortly.

Please register on: Empowering Voices: Amplifying the Social Care Workforce Tickets, Tue 1 Oct 2024 at 09:30 | Eventbrite

We look forward to seeing you then.
