Looking for a job and ESA

Tonawanda17

Hi, I wonder if someone can help. I am on ESA (CB and support group). I am looking for a job at the moment. I understand that if i find a job over 16 hours per week my esa would need to stop. What happens if the job doesn't work out? Can i reclaim or would i be on JSA/UC. The jobcentre said they thought there was something which means you could be able to reclaim Esa but they were not sure. Thanks

hi. Thanks for replying. An office/ admin type job would be ideal.

You cannot work 16 hours under the ESA permitted work rules. You are allowed to work under 16 hours.

Best of luck with the job hunting.
