Consultation on PIP changes for those in work

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

We call on the UK Government to reconsider and consult on the changes to the daily living element of PIP. This benefit has been widely described as an out of work benefit, but many working people receive PIP.

This petition calls for the UK government to

properly consult on how these changes will affect disabled people who work.

The daily living element of PIP enables many disabled people to be in and stay in employment. Any reduction in this allowance will see many disabled workers worse off and potentially forced out of work. This could affect their mental and physical health and well-being as well as impacting financially.
Disabled workers should be properly consulted on the impact of these changes and their voices heard.

Why it was rejected

The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.

The Government is currently consulting on changes to PIP.
