universal credit help

I'm working 10 hours doing cleaning but in the past and now i have been getting bullied by my supervisor and i told my boss loads of times and he does 0 about it and a new care taker has been spreading lies about me saying i'm useless and always on a phone which is not true, My boss wants me to work in the school instead off the other building and i do not want to, I'v worked with a women for over 2 years and the reason why he is moving me is because of "teamwork" He doesnt like how well we get on.... Huh?....., We are the best cleaners in the whole school, Never been complained about.

I want to quit my job, I hate it because of whats going on for over a year now, Will universal credit stop my money for a few weeks or months?.

Please help

    If you want to quit your job why don't you get another one instead of going onto Universal credit? Even if it's not a great job, for only 10 hours a week it can't be that unbearable while you look for alternatives.

    According to this website, then leaving your job voluntarily would give you a sanction if you were in the full conditionality group. How long for depends on whether you've been sanctioned previously or not.

    I still don't see why you can't just look for another job though.

    I have another question, Do Universal Credit ring up your boss and ask why they let you go?
