<p /> <p>For all disabled former Remploy workers made redundant as a result of factory
closures, the Government put in place the £8 million guaranteed People Help and Support
Package (PHSP). The support package provides help to each affected disabled former
employee for up to 18 months from the date they left Remploy.</p><p> </p><p>Latest
figures show that 1,245 former Remploy disabled workers (over 80 per cent) of the
1,507 people who were made redundant and had been supported by a Personal Case Worker
were in work and/or had accessed Work Choice support. A total of 1058 jobs have been
found for disabled former employees and 774 are currently in work.</p>
