UK Government unveils overhaul of welfare system

Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

The United Kingdom government has revealed a series of major changes to the benefits system, aimed at reducing the country’s growing welfare expenditure.

These reforms are part of a broader strategy to cut £5 billion from the welfare budget by 2029, while encouraging more people to re-enter the workforce.

Key elements of the plan include merging several existing benefits, such as Jobseeker’s Allowance and Employment and Support Allowance, into a streamlined framework.

Among the proposed changes is the tightening of eligibility criteria for Personal Independence Payments (PIP), a move that has sparked widespread debate.

Additionally, the government plans to abolish the work capability assessment for Universal Credit by 2028, replacing it with a new model intended to assess individuals’ potential to contribute to the workforce.

The “right to try” initiative is another cornerstone of the reforms, allowing individuals on disability benefits to explore work opportunities without fear of losing their entitlements.
