Thousands of disability benefit tests branded 'unacceptable' under the government's own quality control scheme
Atos and Capita have never even met their target once, according to the DWP's current quality control scheme for Personal Independence Payments (PIP)
Thousands of disability benefit tests have been branded "unacceptable" by the government's own quality control scheme.
Bombshell new figures say neither Atos nor Capita - the outsourcing giants paid more than £500m to assess people for Personal Independence Payments (PIP) - are meeting the target of 97% of assessments conforming to standards.
Latest audits show 6.4% of PIP benefit assessments were deemed "unacceptable" in the three months to October 2017.
The two firms have never met the target once, according to the current method of measuring performance.

A basic 9-5 customer service/admin job for a local CHDAUK centre (booking appts etc) in the nearest city to where I live is paying £20k a year, £3 grand above other wages in the same sector. I call it blood money
