Annex B
"TRIGGER REGIME" FOR WORK FOCUSSED
INTERVIEWS
People claiming Jobseeker's Allowance will continue
with the current intervention regime of fortnightly signing and
regular reviews. Those claiming other benefits will be subject
to an intervention regime based on certain life events or at three-year
intervals if none of the life event triggers apply.
The exception is lone parents. Those lone parents
making a new claim to Income Support will be required to attend
a meeting with their personal adviser six months after the claim
has been established and then annually.
Life event triggers are:
— Where a client remains entitled to
benefit following a Personal Capacity Assessment (in practice
where a Capability Report is also produced);
— Where a client starts or ends a period
of part-time work;
— Where a client ends an education
or training course arranged through their personal adviser;
— Where a carer's Invalid Care Allowance
ceases but other benefit remains in payment;
— Where a client who claimed aged 16/17
turns 18.
