I seem to recall the DWP had one of the highest employment tribunal rates for disability discrimination specifically from their staff https://www.bigissue.com/news/social-justice/dwp-disability-discrimination-employment-tribunals/
As a disabled person who's had significant dealings with the DWP since 2004ish, I can attest to extensive personal experience of egregious and persistent discrimination both in attitudinal terms and in their failure to do even very basic reasonable adjustments.

@NatalyaD @ChrisMayLA6 @HarriettMB I wish I could truthfully say I was surprised. I am SO not! How can this Government demand more #disabled people get into #jobs when it engages in #disability #discrimination in the jobs #market itself, & won't - as you rightly say - make even the most basic #adjustments in the #workplace? It's hardly setting a good example to other #employers.
