    Atos

    After watching both C4 and BBC2 last night it just proved what we already knew. 12%. Whilst atos employees state this is the figure they have been set, both DWP and atos deny this figure exists, I wonder who's telling the truth?????
    When the one atos worker described her job as toxic it about said it all. They did add that due to lack of work opportunity they had to learn to love atos.

    if they have set the number at 12% they are not doing very well when the number getting in the group is 28% plus

    given the health of all people in the UK I am supprised that 28% are in the support group thats a lot of very sick people

    what I saw in the program was that atos are paid to do dwp dirty work

    I saw a lot of ( many eastern european) workers so glad to have employment and scared to rock the boat from fear.

    When any one asked me to do their dirty work I said no and got a different job. I guess it comes down to what price you forego your self respect.

    Hhmmm, That's a figure close to turning a blind eye, especially if you are from E. Europe.
    Not bad either for what they actually do, not exactly challenging, medically.
    Ironic that the cuts in benefits will pay their wages, does that make us their bosses????

    its the sort of wage someone having trouble getting a job working for an out of hours dr service would take to inprove there english as that pays more

    gp gets over £100,000 these days but as say a dr in poland gets £330 a month they will have no problems getting staff
