Hi, I’ve started receiving messages on UC journal about invites to talk to someone about work and whether I’d be interested in looking at opportunities. They say the conversation won’t affect my LCWRA or PIP but I’m worried there is a trap in there. Has anyone else been receiving these messages on their journal?

A lot of people are receiving them, it's no trap, just either say no thanks or ignore the message, or just go for it. I'd be a bit worried about going for it and seeing them and then possibly doing something like voluntary work or a course, because that's kind of like it's saying you don't really have that much of a limited capability for work related activity? And may affect you when you next have a WCA?

well done on being the first person to post today.

Thanks for the info, I am very wary of interacting with these people and can well believe it will be used against me if I was to show interest. I don’t trust these people. Somewhat reassuring that it is voluntary but I feel it will be marked down that I attended and therefore it will be used to take away some of my support

Just ignore them if you're not feeling fit.
