Recommendation 24
24
Ensure safeguarding publication is accessible and develop additional support toolkits for claimants.
Recommendation
DWP must ensure its new ‘approach to safeguarding’ publication is easy to use, signposts relevant support organisations, and is available in a range of languages and alternative formats. DWP should also develop an additional support toolkit to accompany this publication, to ensure information relating to available support is not lost within a lengthy policy document. This should include both a toolkit aimed at claimants and a toolkit aimed at organisations supporting claimants. (Recommendation, Paragraph 94) Preventing harm and responding to risk
