Changes to Work Capability Assessments would help people ‘move off benefits and towards the jobs market’, Work and Pensions Secretary Mel Stride…
Work and Pensions Secretary Mel Stride has said disabled people could be given more help to work from home as part of plans to reduce the numbers claiming sickness benefits
The new proposals are part of a post-pandemic drive to encourage more people with long-term conditions and disabilities into the workplace, following a £2 billion investment announced by ministers earlier this year. “We have seen a huge shift in the world of work in the last few years, a huge change that has accelerated since the pandemic.
He added that the changes would not affect those at the end of their life, or with severe learning difficulties or disabilities. “We’re seriously concerned that if the Government does overhaul its assessment process without putting any additional support in place, then disabled people are just going to be put under more pressure to find work, without having the support they need to do so,” she said.
