Explanation:
Duty worker/duty social worker/duty officer: A duty worker is a person who answers the phone and takes details when you ring to make contact with social services. Most teams of social workers
operate a duty system, which means that each team member is responsible in turn for answering the phones, making home visits and dealing with families who do not yet have an allocated or named social worker.
