Staff and units
At last count we have 224 members of staff. This is an increase of 30 staff members compared to last year. Our staff work in three main offices - two in Edinburgh and one in Glasgow - and a number of regional offices across the country for staff working with the Scottish Health Council.
Our Edinburgh and Glasgow offices were due to move to a new site in Glasgow in 2010 but the Scottish Government has announced that this will no longer be going ahead.

Our workforce plan helps make sure the specialist knowledge and experience of our staff is used to deliver our work programme in the most efficient and effective way. It changes as new and better information becomes available and with changing circumstances.
This plan is written in accordance with the statutory duty placed on all NHS boards under the terms of the NHS Reform (Scotland) Act 2004 and aims to summarise the process for the 2007/8 planning period.
