Low employment rates among disabled people combined with rising numbers of Incapacity Benefit claimants, have given rise to increasing policy interest in the employment prospects of people with disabilities and serious health conditions. The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is conducting a review of its disability employment services including how provision should be structured, funded and delivered in the future. A key area of interest is how effective DWP-funded Residential Training (RT) is at enabling disabled adults to make the transition from benefits into work.
