You're having a laugh........!!
I get all of that, but to be honest, it isn't going to get them a job if others are more than willing to do whatever it takes to be in front of the queue.
Besides which I thought that after 3 months (I think?) you don't have much of an option which job or type of job you are given to apply for.
You are expected to apply for any job that is put in front of you!
If the only job is cleaning out the public lavs - then they must apply for it in a genuine and non compromising way.
The person concerned seems to want to pick and choose what job they would like to do. Ummmm is that allowed within the terms of the JSA agreement? Methinks not!
Please pay attention and think again before I lose the will to live! (I resisted the temptation then to type more than one exclamation mark which the under-educated seem fond of doing.)
Let's say the person in question has no skills and no work experience then no way on earth will his JSA Agreement include a stipulation that he apply for any one of a million jobs. An anaesthetist or accountant would be two examples. Why? Well, those would require years of training. So your 'any job' remarks are quite risible.
Your reasoning implies that whatever conditions the DWP and/or work providers might invent for continued conditionality, whether legal or not, should be abided by or else, most likely while the customer tugs their forelock in grateful acceptance.0
