Question

To ask the Scottish Government, under the fair work conditionality for public sector grants, how it (a) assesses and (b) monitors the delivery of "appropriate channels for effective workers' voice" by grant recipients.


Answer

(a) Potential grant recipients must provide appropriate factual evidence to the relevant funder confirming that they are meeting the effective voice condition and this must be signed off by a recognised trade union(s), or other appropriate workers’ representative where there is no union recognition. Examples of effective voice are provided in our updated Fair Work First Guidance, published on 18 November 2024.

(b) I refer the member to the answer to question S6W-31247 on 28 November 2024. All answers to written Parliamentary Questions are available on the Parliament’s website, the search facility for which can be found at https://www.parliament.scot/chamber-and-committees/written-questions-and-answers
