Scottish Creative Unions Group
Our affiliation with the Scottish Trades Union Congress cements our position as the union for professional playwrights in Scotland. We work with our fellow creative unions to improve the rights, pay, protections, and working conditions of freelancers in Scotland, and to ensure that fair work is treated not as an aspiration, but as a basic minimum standard across the creative industries.
