If they’re going to reduce the welfare bill the Royal Family must be shitting themselves.
Interviews are such a big problem. I’m autistic, mid-30s, I’ve been working full time since I was 17, but I’ve almost never succeeded at a job interview. I’ve always gotten new jobs by either knowing someone or starting as an agency temp and then getting made full time, with the one exception being an interview where I’m pretty confident that the hiring manager was also autistic.
this seems like an excuse to take benefits from ND disabled people imo
Sir Stephen Timms cited a reluctance among employers to introduce adjustments as a reason behind the low employment rate.
It’s this that will help reduce those “negative experiences”. And improving the whole recruitment process too. They’ve made progress with gender and race on this front, they need to do better.
Getting employers to do so will probably require improved labour laws and investment, which doesn’t look forthcoming yet.
Instead I fear we will end up with some more unbinding guidelines employers will ignore, and then those who still cannot find work will have the rug pulled from them with the cuts.
Hey, Australia basically just did this.
