Crazy JSA Sanction

JCP staff are nowhere near as knowledgeable as they used to be, their positions have been dumbed down to mere desk clerks, any request for benefit advice is now referred to the claimants local BDC.
That's because we are not benefits advisors, we work at the jobcentre. The benefits advisors work at the benefit delivery centre.0 -
I think you are not understanding what i am saying.I have no issue with people not giving access to thier account nor with your advice on arriving on time but why advise people to only do no more than their agreement? It isnt a competition to get away with the least it all about providing proof you have been doing your best to get off benefits.
Its not 'our' rules to make 'us' happy. The government make the rules, we abide by them the same as claimants are required to.
Yes we make mistakes, yes the system is certainly flawed, yes things go wrong but its a small % many people claim and have no issues at all. No matter what processes come into play it will never be without faults.
I mean only write down what the jobseekers agreement says and no more. You have then done what was asked of you.
You are then free to search for jobs your own way with no pressure of sanctions from the job centre.0
