This presentation will draw on findings from the first wave of a longitudinal survey as part of the
Retention and Sustainability of Social Care Workforce (RESSCW) project.

general health and wellbeing, and intentions to leave the employer and sector altogether. The findings highlight concerns related to increased workload, unpaid working hours, wellbeing at work and experiences of abuse amongst the survey respondents, which
