WELFARE REFORM. 140. Recognizing the significant impact that welfare reform will have upon the community, the parties will establish a Joint Labor-Management Welfare Reform Committee that will consist of six (6) representatives of labor and six (6) representatives of management. Labor representatives shall include one current City employee from each Local Union, who shall be paid release time for joint committee meetings. The purposes of the Committee will be to address the impact of welfare reform upon the community, including assessing the feasibility of a public apprenticeship program to provide additional employment and/or training opportunities for welfare, general assistance and SSI recipients by collecting data related to such a program and determining the classifications that might be apprenticed and the appropriate ratio or numbers of participating apprentices. Decisions shall be made by mutual agreement, subject to approval as required by the Charter or other applicable law.
WELFARE REFORM. Significant changes are being made to the Welfare Benefits system with the bulk of these being implemented in 2013/14. This presents issues for a number of partners in regard to the support that will be required for those who live in Inverclyde who will be impacted upon by the introduction of Universal Credit including the top slicing of Council Tax Benefit and the introduction of the ‘bedroom tax’. Job Centre Plus, Inverclyde Council and voluntary organisations will have the greatest role to play in supporting residents both financially and in helping those who require assistance with completing the web based application forms. The Inverclyde Financial Inclusion Partnership has been working to identify how all the partners can provide support and minimise negative impacts on local people. However, it is recognised that Welfare Reform will have a far reaching negative impact on those who live in Inverclyde’s most deprived areas. This will make delivering on the reduction of inequalities across Inverclyde a harder task.
WELFARE REFORM. The UK Government is planning to save up to £11billion annually from the benefit system through significant changes that will have major implications for those who rely on benefits and that will also significantly impact on the work of the East Lothian Partnership. The key reforms that will impact most are: Restrictions in the amount of Housing Benefit that can be claimed Integration of Housing Benefit into a new Universal Credit Replacement of Council Tax Benefit with local schemes The implications of the introduction of Self Directed Support Restrictions on cost of living increments to benefits The longer term implications of the introduction of Universal Credit
