Require Jobcentre Plus centres have accessible toilets for customers

Closed 37 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the Government to require that all Jobcentre Plus centres have accessible toilets for customers. This is because many jobseekers are disabled or have health conditions and a number of these either mean people need the toilet frequently or need an accessible toilet or both.
By requiring accessible toilets in Jobcentre Plus centres the Government can ensure increased accessibility and make it easier for people to stay to job search or wait for an interview. This could even have benefits in the long run by helping increase the changes of people getting off benefits and into work.
