    But does not result in sanctions if not utilised.

    You get sanctioned if you are not actively seeking employment, so only skivers need worry.

    Rubbish, it is all about implementing the current sanctions regime which is prevalent throughout the DWP.

    You only get sanctioned if you dont fulfill your JSAG obligations, if you are a genuine jobseeker you wont have a problem with that, the only ones who will get caught out are those who arent looking for work.

    It's possible to actively seek employment without using UJM. Most of the jobs I've applied for aren't advertised on there.

    That is not the case, there are plenty of other reasons for a sanction to be imposed, none of them related to the JSAg.
