Supporting You in Receiving the Access to Work Grant
Identify the Need:
We will begin by determining your specific needs and how the grant can support you in your job. This may include equipment, workplace adaptations, travel costs, or a support worker.
Gather Documentation:
We will collect all necessary documentation, including medical evidence of your disability or health condition, a job description, and details of your employer.
Research Available Support:
We will look into the types of support available through the Access to Work scheme to ensure we apply for the appropriate assistance.
Complete the Application:
We will help you fill out the Access to Work application form, which can be done online, by phone, or by post. We will ensure all sections are completed accurately and thoroughly.
Submit the Application:
We will send the completed application along with any required documentation to the Access to Work team. If applying online, we will ensure the submission confirmation is received.
Await Assessment:
Once the application is submitted, an Access to Work adviser will contact you to assess your needs and discuss the support required.
Implement Recommendations:
Based on the adviser’s recommendations, we will arrange for the necessary support and adaptations. This may include purchasing equipment, arranging travel assistance, or hiring a support worker.
Monitor Progress:
We will regularly check in with you to ensure the support is effective and address any additional needs that may arise.
By following these steps, we will ensure a smooth application process and secure the necessary support. Finally, we will find a suitably qualified support worker or coach tailored to meet your needs.
