The Department for Work and Pensions has updated its employers’ guide to Access to Work, a scheme which provides money to help disabled people do their jobs.

The information has been updated to include the new cap of £57,200 for 2018 to 2019. The government announced that the cap would increase by £15,000 from April to give disabled employees better access to the assistance they need to carry out their jobs.

Access to Work is a specialist disability service from Jobcentre Plus that gives practical advice and support to disabled people, whether they are working, self-employed or looking for employment. It is provided where someone needs support or adaptations beyond the reasonable adjustments which an employer is legally obliged to provide under the Equality Act.


"I have always found the Learn Centre to be helpful and supportive of not only mine but the team's payroll training needs. The blended learning approach works well for me and I would not hesitate to recommend them as a Payroll training specialist provider not only for online delivery (e-learning) but also face 2 face and in-house. The Payroll Professionals Conference is also a great networking opportunity."
