Guidelines for regular employment

Factors that you may need to consider in making a decision on whether the client is in regular employment of 15 or more hours a week include:

  • Is the client able to work 15 or more hours each and every week?
  • Is the work permanent, casual or on-call?
  • Is there a pattern of the client working 15 or more hours every week?
  • Does the client expect to be able to continue working 15 or more hours every week?
  • Is it likely that the client's health condition may prevent them from working 15 or more hours some weeks, or in the future?
  • Is the client's ability to work 15 or more hours a week due to a temporary improvement in their health condition?
