sanctions, work search
has anyone got any tips on dealing with multiple sanctions, my client has had them for failing to do enough job search and failing to use universal job match, I am losing track of the number and length of the sanctions he hs as they seem to goon for ever
Thanks Robverco
Good luck. I don’t think a 5-day good cause rule (but does not have to be good cause appeal) applies to JSA (yet) so I guess find the first sanction and ask them to look at that again first, then the next. If successful should have a positive knock on effect on subsequent ones.
[ Edited: 8 Mar 2017 at 10:35 am by robverco ]Apologies, just noticed this is a UC post. Fortunately the 5-day good cause rule still does not apply, is now ‘good reason’. Some of the existing JSA good cause case law may still be relevant.
I could scan and email you the CPAG UC: Conditionality & Sanctions seminar pack from December 2016?
