Hi,
I have been claiming full jobseekers benefit and have now been offered a part-time job. I will be working three nights a week for 6 hours a night. As far as I can make out I will still be able to claim JB for the other three days. There is also the possibility that I will be doing the odd sunday over the next two months as one of the others working here is going travelling for two months. Is it true that sundays are not counted as the guidelines say you have to be unemployed for a minimum of 3 days out of the 6, not the 7 days? Can anybody clarify this for me
 
Sundays are not counted for SW pourposes so if yoiu only worked Sundays every week, you could claim a full SW payment! Youa re corrrect in saying that you can claim 3 days benefit for the days you don't work
