Work Capability Assessment
The Work Capability Assessment (WCA) is the medical test used by the UK Government's Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to decide whether jobless welfare claimants are entitled to sickness benefits. The WCA aims to sort claimants into three groups: fit for work; unfit for work but fit for pre-employment training; or fit for neither work nor training. The test's criteria and the testing procedure itself have been controversial, with a high success rate on appeal leading to questions about the accuracy of the process and the value for money of the outsourced contract.
