Review the Access to Work Scheme
Investigate how the Access to Work scheme is operating. This review should ensure the scheme offers fair and timely support for all disabled people seeking employment.
We believe that a system meant to promote equality could be perpetuating discrimination, inconsistent decisions and what we feel are unreasonable delays, potentially defeating the purpose of the scheme, which is to help disabled people stay in or enter employment. We believe these delays can cause significant financial and emotional distress, and in some cases, it has been reported that they are leading to job losses.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
