Offered work as relief

Vayda

Just looking for some help as I'm not sure how it works with JSA and relief work.

My old job at a creche rang earlier and asked if I would be interested in some relief hours for sick leave and others. 2 hours some evenings for closing and some mornings (also 2 hours).

I have been on JSA since October and getting the full amount and I don't really know what way I would be affected. Told them I would get back to them but I don't want my payments affected to where I'd be short on rent, etc.

Any information is appreciated, I will be calling the welfare office too.

Thanks, I tried calling citizens advice for some clarity but the person who answered seemed slightly irritable.

I got from the call that if I get under 20 euro per day and work 3 days or less then my payment shouldn't be affected.
