The CIPD has released its annual report, Working Lives Scotland, which benchmarks job quality across Scotland based on the survey responses from over 1,000 Scottish-based workers across various sectors. Split into five ‘fair work’ themes of respect, security, opportunity, fulfilment, and effective voice, this important report offers evidence from which Scottish employers can shape their working practices.
Appreciating that employers may recognise some of the issues highlighted in the report, over a series of articles, we are considering the key findings arising out of each theme and will identify suggested actions for employers which help address these issues.
This second post in our series looks at the themes of opportunity and security, which asked workers about career development; flexible working; job security; pay, benefits and financial wellbeing; and automation at work.
Below we consider some of the key statistics arising from the themes of ‘opportunity’ and ‘security’ and identify some practical points for employers to consider to address the issues highlighted in the survey.
