Research shows that Conditionality does not work!
Sanctions;
-
are ineffective in getting people back to work.
-
push whole families into poverty.
-
the threat of a sanction is often enough to trigger serious health problems such as anxiety, depression or stress.
-
are punitive, claimants have no right to representation or appeal!
-
are made in secret by officials who have no independent responsibility to act lawfully.
Sanctions Do Not Work
The Department of Work and Pensions must end Conditionality for all claimants now!
