PIP helps with extra costs if you have a long-term physical or mental health condition or disability. It is not means tested — your income and savings do not affect your entitlement.
If you cannot work due to illness or disability you may be entitled to Employment Support Allowance or the Limited Capability for Work element of Universal Credit.
Both require a Work Capability Assessment. The assessment considers your ability to carry out work-related activities. Always describe your worst days — not your best.
Under the Equality Act 2010, your employer has a legal duty to make reasonable adjustments to remove disadvantages caused by your disability.
Examples of reasonable adjustments include: working from home, flexible hours, specialist equipment, amended targets, or a change of role or location. Your employer can only refuse if the adjustment is genuinely not reasonable for the business.
