There are no permitted working hrs on DLA you can work full time on DLA. DLA is there to aid your life and help you work I know people who are in receipt of DLA and have "proper " jobs gained in open competition. The person I am thinking was born with the condition that gave rise to DLA and did not realise that it was an option until she was 43 yrs of age when her disability became too much and she had to re-train as a teacher of English. She only did this after being told that it was time to give up work which she refused to accept.
The DLA came in useful whilst she was at UNI.
