Advice for employees
If you're not receiving Housing Benefit and you're working, we can request a Direct Earnings Attachment (DEA) from your employer.
A DEA allows your employer to take the money you owe us from your earnings over a period of time.
Your employer will receive guidance on how much to take.
Employers must comply with a request for a DEA.
For more information, visit legislation.gov.uk and GOV.UK.
