What Are The Rules on UC If New Job Does Not Work Out?

I am on universal credit (I was obliged to seek work,) and have a new job starting on Monday. What are the rules regarding UC, if the job does not “work out”?
I would imagine if I decide to walk out the door on the first day, I will not be able to immediately claim UC (I have no intention to do this.)
However, say the employer says “this guy is rubbish,” and show me the door - how would it affect UC?
Thanks.

It depends. on the person's conduct, that person might act up or go slow so knowing they would get dismissed.

Could be referred to a Decision Maker reasons for leaving employment and a sanction could be applied for 91 days. So you would need to provide good reasons for leaving to avoid this.The comments I post are personal opinion. Always refer to official information sources before relying on internet forums. If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.2
