    Hi, just got a letter stating that my Jobseekers benefit has been exhausted. I can reapply for it but my employer needs to fill out a form stating how many days i worked every week last year. Problem is that he has lost or misplaced most (or possibly all) his records. So what can i do? Will they accept an estimate with a letter from my employer stating the problem?

    Also i need a p60 form. Does my employer supply that?

    Your employer is not only required to retain records for 6 years but they must also supply a P.60. I am assuming you continued to work part time hours over the past few months and surely i doubt your employer would not be able to recall your hours, even an average. More worrying is your P.60, you should have received this in January, is there an underlying problem here? Tax, PRSI payments etc?

    Is maith an scáthán súil charad.

    Hi, thanks for the reply. No, there is no problem like that. My only problem is if we try to do an estimate and it does not correspond to what i have handed into the social welfare office, will i be penalised even if it is not my fault that the records have not being kept?

    Yes you could be. You could even be assessed with an overpayment.
    As the previous poster has said, your employer is legally obliged to keep these records. You need to contact the social welfare office and discuss it with them before submitting anything.
