Scrap demeaning work tests and sack Atos


From a PCS press release:

Today – Wednesday 19th February – is a national day of action against Atos, and the Public and Commercial Services union is calling for the demeaning work capability tests to be scrapped.

Support to help sick and disabled people find work if they can should be brought back in-house. The tests currently carried out by Atos on behalf of the government are designed solely to cut entitlements.

The national day of action has been organised by disability campaign groups Disabled People Against the Cuts and Black Triangle.
