| Abstract: |
COVID-19 arrived in the UK early in March 2020. By 23rd March 2020, the UK experienced the first national lockdown. As businesses and livelihoods stalled, an unprecedented number of applications were made for Universal Credit (UC). Drawing on data from the most comprehensive national study examining working-age benefits - i. e. Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Jobseekers Allowance (JSA) and Universal Credit (UC) - during the pandemic, this report provides an understanding of the experiences of benefit claimants during the first wave of COVID-19. |
