Incapacity Benefit Changes

People on Incapacity Benefit, Severe Disablement Allowance and 'incapacity related' Income Support will undergo the Employment and Support Allowance test in the near future. If test-goers pass then they will go onto Employment and Support Allowance.

If you are called for an assessment, it is important that you know as much about the Employment and Support Allowance as possible. Please click here to access information issued by the Department for Work and Pensions on Employment and Support Allowance and the Work Capability Assessment.
