I have been offered to work for just 5 hours on one day only per week.
I am on Unemployment assistance, would I have to report this to the dole?
Also I have heard of Part-time job incentive scheme, are you better off going on this, or just telling the dole the hours I work and let them deduct or whatever they do?
I have tried contacting the social welfare twice now but to no avail.

This should tell you:

what used to be

it used to be that if you worked on a Sunday, it wouldn't effect your dole, because Sunday was considered a non-working day. Dunno if that\s still in effect though.

I work on Sundays. Do people who work on Sundays have to pay income tax for that work?

I don't think that Sunday is significant from the point of view of payment of UB/UA or liability for income tax and believe that from a Revenue/Welfare point of view it is potentially a normal working day.
