How the NCS will affect workers

Hundreds of thousands of people in Scotland work in community health, social care and social work.

The NCS will improve conditions by:

  • making sure we plan and deliver the work all those people do in the same way everywhere in Scotland
  • drawing on the experience of workers in its design
  • including people who represent workers on the NCS Board
  • working on developing a Workforce Charter. This will be a document that will support workers to feel involved, supported and valued.
