Social Security Scotland

About Social Security Scotland

We are an Executive Agency of the Scottish Government. We have been set up to administer the new Scottish social security system. Our aim: Contribute to the creation of a fairer society. Our vision: Provide support to each of us when we need it. The benefits we deliver are being introduced in stages. Once fully operational, we will deliver benefits for people on low incomes, disabled people, carers, young people entering the workplace and to help people heat their homes.
