Professor Colin Lindsay's research interests include: public management reform; HRM and employment relations in the public sector; new governance in public policy; policy evaluation; employability, skills and access to training; experiences of low-skilled work; and approaches to promoting equality in the workplace. He works closely with the Scottish Centre for Employment Research (SCER), and is currently conducting research with colleagues at SCER on workplace innovation. He has conducted research for the UK Commission for Employment and Skills; the Scottish Government; the Scottish TUC; and the European Commission.

• workplace innovation in SMEs (ongoing research with the Scottish Centre for Employment Research);
• the governance of employability and labour market policies (e.g. research recently published in Public Administration);
• labour market exclusion and the barriers faced by disadvantaged groups;
• and inequalities in access to workplace training.
