Here at Citizens Advice we think that a system designed to determine if you can access support when you are unfortunate enough to get ill or injured needs to be Fit for work itself – and we don’t think that employment and support allowance (ESA), the benefit offered to people who are unable to work due to illness or disability, is fit for this purpose.
