Incapacity Benefit
- Question
- What assistance her Department makes available to existing long-term incapacity benefit claimants to help them move into employment.
- Answer
-
We have invested heavily to support existing incapacity benefit customers into work. Since October 2003, pathways to work has helped 180,000 people into work. We are conducting a review into the employment support that we provide to disabled customers and we will bring forward proposals in the spring.
