UC conditionality
Client has claimant commitment that require her to be prepared to work up to 48 hours, work any day of week, travel up to 90 minutes each way. She also has to prove 35 hours of work related search each week. Work coach not prepared to allow travel time involved in the work related search….walking 30 minutes to use PC in library, cycling to out of town retail parks etc. Obviously at risk of sanction, but clearly unreasonable. Under considerable stress, particularly around not being able to include the travel time in her work search.
Also finding it difficult to get CC adjusted to take into consideration caring responsibilities, though easier to challenge.
What is the best way to approach unreasonable CC and in particular work search activity?
