PAYE65030 - Employment maintenance: employment agencies: agency workers and claims to JSA
Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA) may be paid for odd days between periods of work in certain employments, for example
- Employment agency workers
- Part time workers
- Supply teachers
- Some dock workers
Sometimes this is referred to as an 'interrupted’ employment.
Since the employer does not issue form P45 Part 1 or Full Payment Submission (FPS) leaver information in these circumstances, there is no P45 Parts 2 and 3 for the JSA claimant to hand to the Department for Work and Pensions.
