UK government plans to revise Personal Independence Payment (PIP) to target "sick note culture" and reduce dependency on benefits for mild mental health conditions.
The UK government plans to target its "sick note culture" with changes to Personal Independence Payment (PIP), potentially requiring receipts to claim money back from the state and offering vouchers or treatment instead of cash payments.
The proposed changes, set to be published in a "green paper" consultation, aim to reduce dependency on benefits for those with mild mental health conditions and encourage engagement with the workforce.
Around 2.6 million people of working age currently receive PIP.
