The ‘employer offer’ is a wide range of services, support and resources we’ve created and pulled together for employers to help you in your role.
The employer support team
As the employer support team, we aim to:
- work with employers to hear from you about what's happening in the sector. We share this intelligence with the rest of our organisation to help shape our work
- share what's available to employers to support you and the workforce
- help employers to understand your regulatory responsibilities and make this as straightforward and efficient as possible.
We hold online information sessions for employers and management teams. We'll give you more information and talk you through things like:
- the employer support service
- the fitness to practice process
- the employer offer.
If you’d like a bespoke session, tailored to your team or event, please email employersupport@socialcare.wales
