New Style ESA and Permitted work
Does anyone know if permitted work rules still exist for new style ESA ie. CBESA, given that there is no permitted work under UC?
Yes - the rules are at regulation 39 of the Employment and Support Allowance Regulations 2013. At a glance, they don’t seem to have changed.
The major change has been that from 3 April 2017 people can do Permitted Work indefinitely even if not in the Support Group - the 52 weeks time limit has been removed
Cheers folks
