Ministerial PACE Partnership

Partnership Action for Continuing Employment (PACE) is the Scottish Government's initiative for responding to redundancy situations.

The Ministerial PACE Partnership, chaired by the Minister for Small Business, Innovation, Tourism and Trade, brings 24 organisations together with the Scottish Government to oversee a continuous improvement programme to enhance the operation of PACE.

The last PACE Client Experience Survey published in September 2022, indicated that of those surveyed who had received PACE support, 89% had obtained employment within six months.

For the period April 2022 until March 2023, PACE provided information to 9899 individuals and the number of individuals who received additional support was 1758.  The number of employers supported was 207.
