In reply to David. I think its got worst in the last few years, and increasingly bad. On the plus side they have recruited more trainees, but then long standing staff are leaving.

In reply to Carol. Its a shame that the helping profession, doesn't do much to help people working in the professional, due to workload pressures.

Given the high caseloads, which impacts upon being able to fully do the work that people came into this for, if people complain then they become targets and have to suffer then. It has changed. There are still plenty of good people in Social Work. BUT retention is often a combination of high turn over of staff, poor retention, high work loads, and having to work alot beyond contractual hours, and in some cases poor management. Teaching appears to also be stressful, but probably an occupation like occupational therapy, or nursing might be more manageable.

One thing I know for certain is I would never advise a young person/relative to become a social worker due to poor salary, poor life/work balance and high level of stress consistently.

In reply to Paul. Paul And this has been going on for years with no real efforts to address things. Hence difficulties in recruitment and retention

Well, figures will dip again, several my colleagues leaving social work, as am I in April. Too high caseloads, no resources, dire IT systems, long hourscwith no recompense
