Thousands more Universal Credit claimants will be pressured into finding work or taking on more hours under new changes coming in next month.
Roughly 114,000 people will be moved from the "light touch" work group to "intensive work search" due to a planned increase in the Administration Earnings Threshold (AET).
The AET determines which "work group" you’re placed in - this then has an impact on if you’re required to look for more work.
