A change of fortune a change of questions?

This comming from another post I made.

It’s their job to give out as little money as possible, that’s the long and short of it. It doesn’t matter if you have mental health issues, a leg amputated or terminal cancer (capability for work questionnaire actually asks your care provider to fill in a section and says ‘in your professional opinion, does the cancer treatment being received interfere with the ability to work’)

If you want their money, you have to jump through their hoops, as wrong as it is. People repeatedly keep voting for these monsters in government

I find it quite amusing when I read some of these answers. Not from the perspective of the CLAIMANT but from the perspective OF THE ASSESSOR OR DECISION MAKER.

You are right it is about giving as little as possible. BUT, if instead of concentrating on giving the claimant the help and support they need they seem to want to get them back into work?

Why not concentrate on getting the physicall fit or people who have not got or had a job in work and then concentrate on getting medical or financial help to those that need that little extra support to stay independent and try to suppor them selves.

SOME, cancers are treatable some are not. Some require Kemo some tablets that would kill a horse, and you expect these people without the worry of surviving that to carry on working or to go back to work to get financial support that the government is supposed to give.

I have only one question. Under Duty of Care: If I have an assessment and the Decision Maker says even though I have, in this case Cancer or Fibromyialgia in going back to work or staying in work what happens if I have an accident at work?

Who pays for the treatment? and time off work then? could this also lead to a private prosecution since based on there assessment of my medical conditions and how they believe that affects my daily life it has made matters worse?

I am not telling you what to do but when I went back to workwith al, my issues I had the Job Centre sign a statement saying they have looked at my conditions that affect me and in their opinion it is safe for me to go back to work.

Funny really they would not sign it under the duty of care to make sure that I was capable of completing a days work and come home in one piece.
