  • Work Capability Assessments Update

    Created: 04/10/2023
    News/Events Category: Employability


    Department for Work and Pensions continues to prioritise new claims for a Work Capability Assessment, but also plan to conduct more Department-led reassessments - recovering capacity post-Covid.

    Reassessments help ensure claimants receive appropriate financial support and account for the fact that health conditions and disabilities can change and affect people differently over time.

    DWP wants to ensure that claimants who can work are supported to do so. If customers who use your services enquire, please advise them to complete their medical questionnaire, if applicable, and to attend their reassessment. If they don’t, their benefits may be affected.

    More information about the Work Capability Assessment can be found on the links below:
