I don't understand why DWP decides that someone is fit for work when they have accepted that the claimant cannot sit or stand at a work station for more than 30 mins.
mean either it sounds disgraceful
It's because you need 15 points to pass the WCA, and be found to have either LCW or LCWRA.
15+ points total for LCW, or one 15 point descriptor for LCWRA.
The descriptor you mention is worth 9 points.
Neither of those are part of the descriptors for either LCW or LCWRA. You can see them both here.
