Hi
If you are on JSA and see home-based commission only jobs listed on their directgov site, (usually self employed roles) and you apply for one and get one, a lot say that they guarantee you earning the minimum wage.
Now i know people who have applied for such jobs, and have earned hardly anything. what happens if this is the case and you are earning far less than JSA rate. Are you able to claim JSA for a top up?
There are always a fair few advertised on the directgov site and i just wanted to know how it works???
