Nearly a third of jobs are under threat at Glasgow Museums and Collections section.
THE cultural sector in Scotland's largest city is to see the biggest impact from local authority budget cuts as nearly a third of jobs are under threat at Glasgow Museums and Collections section.
Staff whose jobs are under threat said they feared for the future care and preservation of Glasgow's world-renowned museum collections and expressed concern about community access to the arts with a proposed merging of the Open Museum service with museums education.Those whose jobs are under threat of redundancy include staff who worked through the pandemic to ensure the re-opening of the famous Burrell Collection in Pollok Park.
"Future exhibitions and displays will require the increased use of private conservation contractors at a substantial additional cost to the city in order to maintain the high profile that Glasgow Museums presently enjoys." In July 2021, three trade unions lodged a formal collective grievance over potential job cut at Glasgow Life, the arm's-length body that runs libraries, museums and sports centres on behalf of Glasgow City Council.
