If his days of work were reduced then he could claim for the other days, if he satisfies the means test.

Reduced days at work
If your employer reduces your days at works to 3 days week or less, you may get Jobseeker's Allowance for the other days. You must meet the other conditions that apply to Jobseeker's Allowance, for example, you must satisfy a means test.
