The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) policy is to develop its staff in the skills and knowledge required to support a range of claimants sensitively and to respect their individual needs.
The department is currently developing guidance and training for DWP staff around human trafficking. This will be available for any member of staff who is told or suspects that the customer they are dealing with is a victim of human trafficking.
