Work Programme
(asked on 17th January 2017) - View Source
Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what key performance indicators are used to measure the performance of the Work Programme.
This question was answered on 23rd January 2017
The Department uses two main measures to monitor performance on the Work Programme. The main Departmental indicator is the proportion of claimants for whom providers have achieved a Job Outcome payment within 12 and 24 months of joining the Work Programme (endorsed by the UK Statistics Authority as the most appropriate measure to gauge Work Programme performance).
