    It depends on the payment you're in receipt of.
    You're supposed to be available for work if in receipt of unemployment benefit.

    Chances are you’re quickly allocated to one of the bodies that have been contracted to get unemployed people off the register and out to do anything.

    They look to see you very regular and you have stuff to do between visits.
