Cameron to stop Conveyor Belt

25-07-2011 15:48

David Cameron describes the signed off sick as conveyor belt for people on benefits. Cameron said: I will end the sick note culture that acts as 'conveyor belt to a life on benefits'.

 

He went on to says “the whole system in in a mess”. An expert report for Downing Street suggested more than three-quarters of GPs admitted they had signed people off sick for reasons other than their physical health.
Cameron says: Businesses are being hit with a £9billion bill every year thanks to the 300,000 people who are slipping out of work and on to sick pay and then welfare hand-outs, he said.
 
We are just lucky that our team are all committed to our conveyor manufacturing and with an extremely low sickness rate. We believe this is down to our conveyor teams being happy in their work place.
