Atos made no mention of these incentives when they gave evidence to the Work and Pensions committee inquiry into benefits assessments earlier this year. Committee chair Frank Field has written to Atos asking for more information saying:
“I am concerned financial incentives to complete assessments quickly may compromise the accuracy and quality of assessment reports - causing further distress to claimants.”
Field told the Mirror:
“It’s an incentive to ride roughshod over claimants and it can’t be right.
“Not only has the Government outsourced the assessment work, it has outsourced moral responsibility for the welfare of claimants. This is the outcome.”
Atos claim that the £50 bonus system was for a period of high assessment volume and is no longer in use.

Now I hope you can understand the frustration regarding this as many are suffering at the mercy of these fools for incorrect assesments and lies on their reports.
