SADA is playing its part in the Fair Work Convention’s vision that by 2025, people in Scotland will have a world-leading working life where fair work drives success, wellbeing and prosperity for individuals, businesses, organisations and society. We have developed a workplace that is built on the five key dimensions of Fair Work: effective voice, opportunity, security, fulfilment and respect.
