Hello! I hope you are well.

I am thinking of applying for a job which is for about two days per month. It will be via Zoom for a local NHS Trust. It would pay £150 to £300 per month (£150 per day). I currently receive Income related ESA. Do you know if this would be OK? Would they take all of those wages away? Will I be forced off ESA (even though I am too ill to work more than two days a month)? Thank you for any insight into this matter. Porridge x

You can perform Permitted Work without it affecting your existing ESA claim, there is a guide to PW in the ESA Guides section at the top of the page.
