    Working 16 hours and on ESA can be met.

    How does one meet condition 2?

    Thanks

    Depends on your disability, not all will put you at disadvantage but many will.

    If a job is 20 hours, one needs to come off ESA. To get WTC disability, one needs to work 16 hours plus (condition 1). Was on ESA in the past 6 months (condition 3). How can one meet (condition 2)?

    You have to meet all 3 conditions.

    You said in your OP working 16hrs and on ESA.

    The factsheet tells you how you meet condition 2. Without knowing about your disability it’s hard to comment.

    Sorry, my mistake in use of words - I was just reading from the help sheet.
