Part-time hours and job seekers benefit

    Hi,

    I have been on the jobseekers benefit for 4.5 months. I've been offered a part-time job that works out as 15 hours per week.

    I'm just reading that you have to be unemployed for 4 days of the week in order to qualify. The job offered would be 3 hours a day Mon-Fri. Does that disqualify me from jobseekers or would I still qualify for a partial benefit?

    Thanks in advance
