Economy People and Skills
Skills Development Scotland (SDS) produces a suite of resources which provide robust information on the labour market.
As part of that commitment, SDS publishes a monthly report providing succinct and up-to-date evidence on Scotland’s economy, people and skills.
The SDS COVID-19 Labour Market Insights produced throughout the pandemic became a valued resource for a broad range of partners, stakeholders and employers, providing the latest evidence of how the disruption affected Scotland’s economy, its businesses and its people.
The ongoing publication of insights has helped to provide a continued sharp focus on the economy and current challenges, such as the cost-of-living crisis.
Having an accurate, detailed and up-to-date evidence base is crucial in developing policy. As a result, SDS has maintained its commitment and continued to provide a monthly resource on Scotland’s economy, people and skills.
The report is produced using published data and gathering insight from lead economic and labour market experts. SDS is also using real-time data to inform this work.
