Hi, I found out last week that i have been put into the work related group for ESA. I have my first pathways to work interview next week. I am worried that they will just try and push me into a job...to be honest i dont know what to expect at all. Also can anyone tell me how long they have been in this group before they are called upon again for a review/medical.... Thanks in advance....Anna
The first thing to say to you is that you will not be asked to find work, although you will be asked to carry out what is called Work Related Activity, which will be the focus of the Pathways to Work Interview.
You can read more about PWIs in the guide that is in the Work section of the Members area.
As to when you should expect another medical, I would hope 6-12 months, however, some members have been re-assessed as little 3 months after being put in the WRAG.
