DWP requires ‘deep-rooted cultural change to stop more benefits deaths’ 

At least 240 internal reviews have been launched since 2020 into cases of serious harm where there has been an allegation that the DWP’s actions may have contributed to a person’s death or harm, the report found. The Department for Work and Pensions requires “deep-rooted culture change” to prevent more deaths of vulnerable benefit claimants, MPs have said.
