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.
How many hours a week are you expected to work if you are a full time employee? Even though many people consider 35 or 40 hours a week full time, the number of hours you are expected to work can vary depending on your employer. In some cases, it's less, for other employers, it can be more. The standard for full-time employment was typically 40 hours a week in the past. However, many employers now consider employees as full-time when they work fewer hours i.e. over 30 hours, 35 hours, or 37.5 hours. Because there are no laws regulating full-time employment for compensation and benefits purposes, the organization determines how many hours per week are considered full-time.
