Whether you can take paid work depends on your immigration status: people with refugee status or leave to remain can work, while most people seeking asylum cannot until a decision is made. Anyone can volunteer, and many new Scots find that volunteering is the quickest way to practise English, gain a reference, understand the workplace in Scotland and meet people.
