The Government has introduced benefit reforms that permit the disabled, single mothers and older people claimants to try out work, and to return to protected levels of benefit more easily if a job doesn’t work out. For those who are considered more work ready such changes make a real difference. This easy read book sets out their rights and obligations. However, fears persist among claimants that they may fall outside of the protection afforded by such rules or that their continued incapacity might be drawn into question if they try out work.
