Abolish the Work Capability Assessment test completely

Petition Details

Work Capability Assessments are tests administered on behalf of the DWP that cause unnecessary stress and suffering to those benefit claimants classed as long term sick or disabled.

Abolish the tests and allow those affected by it to live peacefully without being repeatedly hounded and pressured

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We understand that you'd like to get rid of work capability assessments, but we're not sure what you'd like to happen with employment support allowance (ESA).

If you'd like people to be able to get ESA without an assessment, you could start a new petition about that.
