Do you think you may drink too much at times? Do you think âeveryoneâ drinks a lot? See below for results from a nationwide survey of 43,000 adults by the National Institutes of Health on alcohol use and its consequences.
If you're single or in a couple, and have no children, you can qualify if: 1  you are 25 or over and you work at least 30 hours a week, or. 2  you are 16 or over and you work at least 16 hours a week and you are disabled and you get a qualifying benefit, or. 3  you are 60 or over and you work at least 16 hours a week.
Part time is a label. I worked a job where they said I was part time, to keep me from getting benefits, even though I was working 40 hours. Since benefits are a company choice and not required by law, they can set the rules of how many hours you have to work to qualify for benefits. Most companies set it at 32, but I've seen better places say anything over 20 qualifies for benefits. The employer decides what is part time.
