Reduce incompetence in PIP assessors

Closed 206 signatures

What the petition asks

Around 40% of PIP assessments are successfully appealed against. This is extremely wasteful, and causes unnecessary stress and inconvenience to the most vulnerable in society. The DWP must ban contractors from using PIP assessors whose assessments have a successful appeal rate of 10% or more.
