The union wants to hear from disabled members about how proposed changes to PIPs (Personal Independence Payments) will affect them.
The Westminster government has announced sweeping changes to how Personal Independent Payments (PIPs) are paid.
The eligibility criteria for people claiming daily living support will be tightened.
Currently, people claiming the daily living element of PIP need to score a minimum of eight points across multiple activities to reach the threshold for support.
From November 2026, people claiming the daily living element of PIP will need to score a minimum of four points in their assessment for PIP in one single activity to qualify.
This means that many disabled workers could lose the financial support which currently enables them to cover the extra costs of living with their disability and stay in employment.
UNISON is challenging these changes, but we need your help to show the government why these changes are so detrimental.
