for anyone wanting to add their experience w/ #AccessToWork to a national campaign: graeae.org/resource/acc.... original event has passed but the survey is continuing and i'd expect more to come. it's long overdue time that #DWP steppedTF up and stopped making it demonstrably harder for us to work!

Useful context from @NatalyaD:

"If blind and you need £5k of special equipment to enable you to work. Tough, wait... Oh looky, employer doesn't (reasonably) want to wait MONTHS and if they fork out the £5k the government won't pay it back. ...

"A blind friend only kept their new job because they had old (not optimal) blind tech they could use during the wait."

@[email protected] As a disabled person who has struggled with EPIC disablism in job recruitment this stuff just makes me very angry and sad. I've taken 4 employment discrim cases and there is very little legal protection, it's all reactive and very limited. Employers are trusted to be honest when they say "business reasons" to cover blatant discrim and lies. Cutting motability, Access to Work, PIP and more will not help sick and disabled people who want to work to work. It'll make it WORSE.
