Our latest report warns further public sector job cuts could hollow out essential services just as demand rises. Public services need more investment not less. 📣@CaseySmithIPPR outlines how choices made now will shape Scotland’s public services for years.

Our new report shows that Scotland's public services are being robbed of almost £3 billion due to outsourcing. At next month's budget, the Scottish Government doesn't need to cut public services - they just need to cut the profiteering from those making billions from them.

Excellent column explaining why our workplaces have become more violent, while our society has become less violent. Over-stretched public facing workers are having to deal with more distressed people with fewer resources to help them.
STUC@ScottishTUC

Public services are stretched to breaking point and it's frontline staff who bear the brunt. Investment in these services is vital for all of us. @RozFoyer / @heraldscotland heraldscotland.com/politics/holyr…

Workers won't tolerate poor pay and conditions. Unions throughout the country are demanding better. They're ensuring employers sign our Fair Work checklist - the worker demands for respect and dignity in the arts. 📸 @heraldscotland/@brianjaffa

📰New STUC analysis shows that for every £1 million of investment in offshore and onshore wind, just one job is created. 🌬️Government strategy will be little more than hot air unless they seriously start creating sustainable jobs. Exclusive with @heraldscotland / @joshpizpom

All power to the Village hotel workers. In the first strike at a major hotel since 1979, these young @FairHospitality members are striking for a real living wage, paid breaks and equal pay. Brave and inspirational.
