Ruth Davison said the numbers backed the Tories record in Government as she launched its election campaign.
Ms Davidson said: "174,000. That's the number of jobs created in Scotland alone since we got Labour out of office and got a competent Conservative-led Government back behind the wheel.
"56,700, the number of jobseekers in Scotland who have come off benefits since we got Labour out of government and 37,600. The number of new businesses created in Scotland."
"Labour, the SNP and the LibDems simply aren't prepared for responsible government which keeps the recovery on track. Their plans are unfit for our country's needs - And it's our job to make sure they don't get to use them.
