Access to Work

What is Access to Work?

Access to Work (AtW) provides advice and practical support to disabled people and their employers to help overcome work related obstacles resulting from a disability.

How does it do this?

As well as giving advice and information to disabled people and employers, AtW pays a grant, through Jobcentre Plus, towards any extra employment costs that result from a disability.

Am I eligible for help through Access to Work?

If your disability or health condition affects the type of work you do, and it is likely to last for 12 months or longer, contact your nearest AtW Business Centre to check whether you are eligible for AtW.

If you have a disability and are in a job, about to start in a job, or are self- employed, AtW could also be for you. It applies to any paid job, part-time or full-time, permanent or temporary.

Unemployed or employed disabled people needing help with a communicator at a job interview can also get help through AtW.

What type of help can be provided through Access to Work?

AtW can help in a number of ways. For example, it can help pay for:

- communicator support at interview (CSI) which meets the full cost of hiring an interpreter to remove barriers to communication at interview;
- a support worker, which allows the applicant to use the services of a helper. Types of support might include reading to a visually impaired person, communicating for a hearing impaired person via sign language (other than at interview which is covered by CSI), providing specialist coaching for a person with learning difficulties or helping a person with care needs;
- special aids and equipment to help a disabled person function in the work place;
- adaptations to premises or to existing equipment;
- help with the additional costs of travel to work, or in work for people who are unable to use public transport. How are my particular needs assessed?

The AtW Adviser will normally speak to you and your employer to arrive at the most effective solution. In the majority of cases, this can be done over the telephone, however, a visit can be arranged if necessary. Sometimes specialist or technical advice may be needed, which the AtW Adviser will help arrange.

How long will it take to get the help I need?

We aim to get you the help that you need in the shortest possible time. However, if it's likely to take some time, the AtW Adviser will explore temporary alternatives with you, for example a support worker or reader, while the permanent solution is arranged and delivered.

Who will obtain the help I need?

It's usually your employer (or you if you are self-employed) who will arrange to obtain the agreed support and then claim back the grant from AtW.

How much is my Access to Work grant?

AtW pays a percentage of the total cost of approved support depending on how long you have been in employment, what support is needed, or whether you are self-employed, for example:

Access to Work pays up to 100% of the approved costs for -

- unemployed people starting a job;
- all self-employed people; and
- people, working for an employer, who have been in the job for less than 6 weeks

Whatever the employment status of the applicant, Access to Work pays up to 100% of the approved costs of help with -

- support workers;
- fares to work; and
- communicator support at interview.

For people, working for an employer, who have been in the job for 6 weeks or more and need special equipment or adaptations to premises, AtW pays a proportion of the costs of support, as follows.

Approved Cost Maximum Access to work contribution
Less than £300 Nil
Between £300 and £10,000 80% of the cost over £300
Over £10,000 80% of the cost between £300 and £10,000 and 100% of the cost over £10,000

All help is for a maximum period of 3 years after which the AtW Business Centre will review the support and the circumstances. Access to Work may provide help for a further period if you continue to be eligible for help under the rules that then apply.

How do I apply for Access to Work?

You will need to contact your nearest AtW Business Centre. Staff there will tell you more about AtW and how it could help your place of work. Speak to your local JobCentre Plus Office

JIS pays a weekly grant of £75 to the employer for the first 6 weeks that you are employed. In exceptional circumstances, and after agreement with the DEA, this may be extended to 13 weeks.

How much do I get paid while using JIS?

Your employer will pay you the normal rate for the job.

Can I tell potential employers about JIS?

Yes, though you should discuss this with your Disability Employment Adviser first as it is their decision whether JIS will be paid for a particular job.

How do I apply for JIS?

You, or your employer, should contact your local Jobcentre Plus office or Jobcentre. They can give you details of the Disability Employment Adviser nearest to where you live.

Disability Symbol

What is the Disability Symbol?


Its a recognition given by Jobcentre Plus to employers who have agreed to take action to meet five commitments regarding the employment, retention, training and career development of disabled employees.

How is the symbol relevant to me as a jobseeker or employee?

There are around 5,200 employers all over the country who use the disability symbol. They range from small to very large organisations in all different types of business. Symbol using employers make five commitments regarding the employment, retention, training and career development of disabled people.

What commitments do employers make?

Employers who use the symbol have agreed with Jobcentre Plus that they will take action on these five commitments:

- to interview all disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria for a job vacancy and consider them on their
abilities
- to ensure there is a mechanism in place to discuss, at any time, but at least once a year, with disabled employees what can be done to make sure they can develop and use their abilities
- to make every effort when employees become disabled to make sure they stay in employment
- to take action to ensure that all employees develop the appropriate level of disability awareness needed to make these commitments work
- each year, to review the five commitments and what has been achieved, plan ways to improve on them and let employees and Jobcentre Plus know about progress and future plans.

How will I recognise the Disability Symbol?

The Disability Symbol (displayed above) is a circular symbol, usually green, with two ticks.

What does it mean if I see the Disability Symbol on a job advert?

It means the employer will guarantee to interview you if you meet the minimum criteria for that job. Find out from the employer what the minimum criteria are. That way, you'll have a good idea of whether it's worth applying and what to expect.

Where else might I see the Disability Symbol?

You might see it in the vacancy section of a newspaper, or on a vacancy displayed on a Jobpoint, or on application forms or papers sent to you by an employer.

What if I'm already employed by a symbol user?

This means you'll have the opportunity to say if you feel that more can be done to develop you to enable you to use your abilities fully. The guaranteed interview promise also applies to internal vacancies advertised within your organisation, provided that you meet the minimum criteria for the job.

What happens if I become disabled or there are changes to my disability whilst working for my employer?

If this should happen and there are aspects of your present employment which make it difficult for you to carry on in the same work, as a symbol user your employer will do all they can to make sure you can stay in a job.

How does the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) affect disability symbol using employers?

Symbol using employers are covered by the DDA in the same way as other employers. The action that they take as a symbol user is in addition to any obligations placed on them by the Act, and in no way affects your rights as a disabled person under this Act. Contact:

Disability Rights Commission Helpline, Freepost MID02164, Stratford-upon-Avon,CV37 9BR
Telephone 08457 622633
