No, they don’t communicate. However it doesn’t matter if you get both

It’s only important for ESA to know you get PIP when on income-related ESA. Just a quick question, have you ever checked entitlement to Universal Credit too?

UC entitlement is not based on hours worked. It's based on earnings received during your assessment period.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
