SASW are calling on the Scottish Government to offer social workers and social care workers a fair mileage rate, on a par with NHS colleagues, for travel while working.
Practicing social worker Deb Solomon shares her experiences with dog whistles in the workplace. Deb is Chair of the BASW Neurodivergent Social Workers SIG and Co-Chair of the BASW Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Advisory Group.
Understanding how dog whistles work, how they affect vulnerable and marginalised communities, and how to diffuse them are important tools for social workers.
