About this listen
The Government believes its traffic welfare system is increasing people's chances of getting a job.
The system was introduced in August 2024 and uses traffic light colours to help beneficiaries stay on track with their obligations.
An evaluation has found nearly 99% of Ministry of Social Development clients are fulfilling their obligations, and the number of sanctions issued has dropped 10.6%.
Social Development and Employment Minister Louise Upston told Mike Hosking 83 thousand people have left the benefit into work.
She says people are more clear of the expectations, and the consequences if they aren't filled.
