Guardian – 9th November 2012
1. Report on Court of Appeal ruling
(Joint update with Boycott Workfare)
Battle royal
After a 4 and half year battle, on Wednesday July 27th 2016 the DWP was forced by a Court of Appeal (CofA) ruling to capitulate and release the names of more than 500 – Mandatory Work Activity workfare exploiters.
A matter of judgement and public interest
This decision was reached by three judges on a 2 to 1 basis, citing public interest considerations being “firmly” viewed by the first tier tribunal (FTT) as “appreciably” outweighing the commercial interests of the workfare placement hosting employers not to be named and be subject to protests. The FTT ruling (pdf) dealt with three conjoined appeals (Zola, Naysmith and Kelly), as all requested names of workfare exploiters.
“The tribunal is firmly of the view that in these appeals the scales are weighed appreciably in favour of disclosure”
A precedent
This legal precedent should now mean anyone, anywhere in the world, is free to use the Freedom of Information Act (2000) (FOIA) to request the names of UK workfare exploiting employers. I suggest using whatdotheyknow.com to make such FOIA requests, as it ensures the FOIA process is kept open and transparent. Do not get too complacent or underestimate the importance of this “vast” list of workfare exploiters, just note that Éire disclosed a similar list of nearly 12,000 of it’s Government forced-labour conscript employers.
Collective punishment
During this protracted battle the DWP used every devious strategy to deny the public right to know the names of employers using it’s numerous forced unpaid labour schemes, “collectively known as workfare”, as the CoA ruling says. This also meant they used the FOIA internal review, tribunal and court appeals processes over the past four and a half years to stymie all similar requests, despite the many Information Commissioner decisions supporting your right to know. Workfare schemes cost the public billions and now employers won’t be able to hide behind the DWP’s cloak of secrecy, obfuscation and legal sophistry.
DWP litigation
Over these past four and and half years the DWP cited it’s Zola case litigation or made references to workfare exploiters ‘commercial interests’ to block FOI requests on the ‘“Back to Work” scheme providers in Liverpool‘, ‘Nature of Tesco’s involvement in Workfare/Community Action Programme‘, ‘Workfare/Seetec information‘, ‘Groundworks and work programme placements‘, ‘Mandatory Work Activity‘, ‘Divine Rescue MWA‘, ‘Day One Support for young People Trailblazer‘ and many more on whatdotheyknow.com. Many workfare related FOI requests will have been made directly to the DWP, from Journalists, researchers and campaigners et al, so currently no open record exists of innumerable denials of the pubic right to know.
The public right to know and mass protest
This DWP denial of the right to know, started around the time of mass public protests against exploitation of workfare conscripts, particularly Tesco’s, whereas prior to that in 2011 the DWP did disclose hundreds of names of workfare hosts from a4e. C4 provide an excellent example of Government oxymoron double-speak on suggesting ‘work experience‘ was ‘voluntary’, when in fact it was mandatory with benefit sanctions for refusing. Or as quoted by the Judge in one of the tribunal appeal hearings, the then Minister for Employment “Chris Grayling is a Lying Bastard“.
The public
It seems to be forgotten that the public are also benefit claimants with economic self-interests. Why should they lose their meagre subsistence level income through benefit sanctions because they refuse to allow charities, social enterprises, businesses and public authorities to economically exploit them for there own sordid commercial gains?
Shopping charities
Why, for instance, should the myriad of charity shops on our high streets, often within the most deprived communities, be free to pursue their grubby commercial interests via a DWP guaranteed supply of forced unpaid workfare conscripts? These janus faced hypocrites so often claim to be relieving poverty, whilst they are actually responsible for causing destitution and despair by facilitating cruel benefit sanctions for anyone who refuses to comply with workfare. The communities they claim to serve are the very ones they exploit, workfare conscripts are so often actually engaged in making money for many of these abusers to pay their staff wages.
Ethics
Sadly the likes of the Salvation Army, those serial abusers of workfare labour, are ‘holding the line‘, but what else can be expected, as they founded 1930s Work Camps.
Charities, social enterprises, businesses and public authorities (everyone) should stop using workfare. Like Oxfam and the hundreds of others, they should all consider it fundamentally unethical.
The Mandatory Work Activity is not compatible with Oxfam’s stance on benefits… In addition to this, there are ‘sanctions’ attached to the scheme which could result in participants having their benefits removed… which would create situations where people were being driven into poverty. This is not compatible with Oxfam’s aims and beliefs.

Forever England
I take this opportunity to call upon England’s NCVO to publicly oppose workfare outright and issue guidance to it’s members, just like it’s counterparts in Scotland and Wales have already done.
Where’s the Justice?
When the Court of Appeal’s, Master of the rolls reached his decision to dismiss the DWP’s appeal, it is worth remembering that the Barrister Robin Hopkins, acting for the Information commissioners Office (ICO), pointed out during the appeal hearing that workfare conscripts are being exploited within the actual Royal Courts of Justice where the DWP’s hearing took place, as well as by Westminster Council, the Local Authority where the Courts are located.
Preparation for workfare
It is more than worrying that the Welfare Reform Act 2012 embeds mandatory workfare (Work Experience or a Work Placement) as a ‘work preparation‘ requirement for all Universal Credit (UC) claimants. A requirement that makes no distinction whatsoever on whether a UC claimant is already working in paid employment or volunteering.
Universal Credit: Work preparation requirement
“undertaking work experience or a work placement”
Welfare Reform Act (2012) – Section 16(3)(e)
The Conservative manifesto of 2015 also included a promise to introduce a new ‘Youth Allowance‘ benefit for 18 to 21 years olds, to limit entitlement to six months and abolish automatic rights to Housing Benefit and impose mandatory daily community workfare, if unpaid traineeships (which can last up to 6 months) or Jobcentre organised work experience are refused. These, now Conservative Government, plans are being implemented in 2017. There are well advanced plans to replace the Work Programme workfare scheme, which will have conscripts until March 2019, with the Work and Health Programme, which will no doubt also include forced unpaid labour for benefits.
Transforming lives through welfare and work(fare)
“We’ll be using work experience much more creatively…”
First speech by new DWP Secretary of State, Stephen Crabb – 12 April 2016
Pay and conditions
To make work pay, including ‘traineeships’ and other forms of ‘work experience’ organised by Government or by employers directly, this work must be paid on a statutory basis at the going rate or the real living wage when the going rate is less, be entirely voluntary, with no wage distinctions on the basis of age and all workers should have the status of employees and be able to enjoy full worker, trade union, health & safety and equality legislation rights and protection. Benefit claimants should be provided with accessible education and training that is entirely voluntary and for it to have true parity with the budgets and resources currently devoted to University level education. As a start, the secret penal system, of benefit sanctions should be abolished without exception.

Sunlight
The modern day scourge of forced-labour would not have been uncovered without the campaigning, direct action and research of Boycott Workfare and more recently Keep Volunteering Voluntary, they should be supported unequivocally. If Éire can release the names of nearly 12,000 workfare exploiters, then the DWP should release the names of all UK workfare exploiters immediately, so we the public can see who they are in the full light of day, as sunlight is the best disinfectant for one of the most morally corrupt social security policies.
Exploitation
Never forget, as Boycott Workfare say and do:
If you exploit us we will shut you down
Conscientious objection
4 week Mandatory Work Activity (MWA) like all workfare, as a matter of well founded belief and conscience, is at it’s core morally bankrupt and beyond redemption.
I am glad to see the MWA contract and the one for the 6 month Community Work Placements are not being renewed. For anyone holding onto a sliver of an idea that MWA was helpful, consider the fact that it had “no impact on employment“. Workfare also harms the chance to find paid employment.
Vile maxim
Maybe the ‘vile maxim‘ of the 500+ masters and overseers of workfare should be the literal:
‘All the commercial gains for ourselves, nothing for the workfare conscripts’
Vigilance
The price of freedom from workfare is unfortunately ‘eternal vigilance‘. Some of the ‘fallout’ from the publication of these workfare exploiters names, is the likes of Shelter saying it does not use workfare, but does not respond to a question on whether it has any ability to stop workfare conscripts being placed in it’s high street charity shops on a local level. Similarly Pizza Hut claim to avow workfare, but as the worlds biggest franchise operation, remain stubbornly silent on the question of whether it’s franancisees are free to use workfare and specifically unpaid 6 month traineeships. There is also a need to be mindful that DWP workfare contractors have been known to place conscripts as fake ‘volunteers‘.
Control
Forced unpaid workfare schemes and the associated benefit sanctions and conditionality are an unforgiveable attack on people requiring social security payments to survive economic decisions not of their making, they are not a price worth paying for unemployment or for anyone in-work and claiming the excessively ‘intrusive and controlling‘ Universal Credit.
