Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether an Access to Work scheme has been implemented in their Department.

Following a cross-government consultation exercise in 2019, a decision was taken in 2020 to change the Access to Work eligibility criteria to standardise workplace adjustments for civil servants. As a result, departments were asked to take over the responsibility for putting in place workplace adjustments for their employees from 1^st April 2022.

The Department for Transport (DfTc) therefore has a dedicated service to manage, procure and fund the provision of Workplace Adjustments for individuals with a disability and/or health condition.
