Not necessarily.
If you are claiming ESA (C) - based on N.I. contributions, your husband's income is irrelevant.
If you are claiming ESA income based I think the rules are that you have less than £16,000 in savings and your husband works less than 24 hours a week on average.

And if he is working less than the 24hrs per week the first £20 is disregarded and the rest is taken into account against the ESA IR award.0
