Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what the average caseload was per work coach at Jobcentres in the last 12 months.
Cases are seen on their specific requirements determined by factors including which conditionality regime they are in, so there is no single measure of Cases per Work Coach.
That said, the most commonly used measure in this regard is Intensive Work Search (IWS) Caseload per Work Coach, which (although imprecise) is the most useful barometer as these are the cases where the majority of Work Coach time is spent.
