The Scottish Government will be using the live adaptations survey results – which will close on Thursday 28th April 2022, 5:00 pm – to help inform the workshop question set.

Following the survey, they are looking to hold some workshops to discuss the adaptations in more detail for different sectors.

The session will help them to address:

•    What adaptations are supported by you and your customers?;
•    What challenges exist to retaining adaptations within your sector and more widely?;
•    What the Scottish Government can do to support you in making adaptations?

If you may be interested in participating in the workshops, please let them know via email no later than Tuesday 3rd May at SaferWorkplacesCovidAdaptations@gov.scot.
