We want the Government to enact this policy because it could benefit taxpayers by ensuring their contributions support meaningful work and reduce long-term welfare dependency. We believe it could strengthen the economy by increasing the workforce in vital areas like healthcare and public services, and address staffing shortages while promoting self-sufficiency among claimants. We believe this approach invests in people, boosts productivity, and eases pressure on stretched public resources.
