Slightly disagree

Yes, but after 3 months of claiming

Volt UK might see some merit in encouraging voluntary community engagement among benefit claimants after a certain period as a means to improve employability and integration. However, they would likely maintain that such programs should not be mandatory or a precondition for welfare support.

Disagree

Yes, but lower the 30hr minimum to allow more time to look for a job

While Volt UK might recognize the potential benefits of voluntary community work in enhancing employability and social cohesion, they would likely oppose making such work a condition for receiving benefits, even with adjustments to the minimum hours.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and every capable person claiming benefits should take on unpaid community work

Volt UK's policies and political ideology suggest a strong opposition to mandatory unpaid work for benefit claimants, as this could be seen as counterproductive to social cohesion and economic fairness, principles that are likely central to their platform.
