Benefit claimants will be made to visit a job centre every day for two weeks as part of a pilot scheme by the government - or face sanctions.
At the moment Universal Credit claimants normally only meet with a work coach once a week for the first three months or fortnightly after that.
But a new pilot will make it compulsory for claimants who have been on the benefit for 13 weeks to visit a job centre every day for two weeks for "intensive support", and failing to attend could lead to sanctions.
