SSSC Codes of Practice - remind yourself of their importance
Thousands of people throughout Scotland use social services every day and many vulnerable children, adults and older people rely on the professional skills, honesty and integrity of social service workers to provide support at times of difficulty.
The Codes of Practice set a clear benchmark. Building on the sound shared values of the profession and coupled with registration, they will raise standards and increase public protection. They have been developed with the sole aim of promoting the best possible services.
SSSC take account of the SSSC Code of Practice for Social Service Workers when they investigate complaints about registered workers. Employers also have to take account of the Codes.
