Just the same as on this forum - some (not all) assume that all on benefits / disability or not are just scroungers.

Same as the testee could just lie about what happened.
I'm sure the on occasion the ATOS people lie it's inherent to human nature.
To suggest that anyone doing work for ATOS will NEVER lie is just odd.

Absolute crap ,people lie if they have something to gain ,what does ATOS have to gain ?

You don't think sometimes people lie just because they don't like someone?

Also of course just because the company doesn't 'have a policy of lying' doesn't mean it's staff feel the same way.

Atos assessors have been accused of falsifying or twisting information in order to deny ESA in a bid to reach government targets - a claim the DWP and Atos vehemently deny. In 2012, the BBC broadcast a Panorama documentary about the new WCA called Disabled or Faking it? in which the former employment minister, Chris Grayling, said: "there are no targets anywhere in the system." But, when the BBC asked to see the DWP’s full contract with Atos, the government refused.
Last year, several former employees have also come forward to tell their story. Dr. Greg Wood, a former Atos assessor, told the BBC: "I was instructed to change my reports, to reduce the number of points that might be awarded to the claimants. I felt that was wrong professionally and ethically.” Another whistleblower, Joyce Drummund, a former Atos Nurse, told a Scottish newspaper, the Daily Record that she was instructed to mark down claimants she knew were unfit for work

Re: The state benefits system mega-thread. Many merged.
Its nothing about being paranoid at all but just stating facts that some might find hard to digest due to their slanted bias and prejudice towards certain subjects and threads.

Interesting I don't recall saying everyone is out to get me. Still I suppose putting words in my mouth helps your point along no end.
