If you miss a work related appointment or assignment without good reason, your case may be sanctioned. A sanction means your benefits may be lowered or stopped.
HRA will mail you a notice about the ability to have a conciliation or re-engagement appointment to help stop your case from being sanctioned. If you get this notice, do not ignore it.
You can contact HRA by email, phone, or by going in person to request a conciliation or re-engagement appointment. You should make this request before the date that is listed on your notice under the question "What do you need to do."
