Employer Support Network - VOCAL Skip to main content

Employer Support Network

In partnership with Carer Positive, we lead the Edinburgh and Lothian Employer Network, a diverse, cross-sector platform where members exchange best practices and insights on supporting carers within the workplace.

This dynamic peer support network brings together professionals from Diversity & Inclusion, Human Resources and Health & Wellbeing to foster open discussions and collaborative learning. 

As part of this initiative, VOCAL provides sector expertise, offering guidance on legislative updates, the latest carer research, and assistance with policy reviews. We also facilitate discussions on key topics, offer practical support, and direct both employers and employees to relevant resources and information.
