What does the Disability Assessor role involve?
While professional experience and qualifications are key for this role, make sure to check you have the preferable soft skills before applying if required.
The role will involve you carrying out 5 client assessments per day.
A typical day will see you carry out telephone, video or face-to-face assessments to understand how a person's disability or health condition affects their daily life.
Youll listen to their experiences, ask questions and use your insights to produce a factual report to help the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) determine their eligibility for benefits.
That's the good news; the DWP make the final decision, you don't.
Your role is to gather information and produce the report.
