Do I need a SSP1 form to claim ESA?
Employees may be able to apply for Universal Credit or Employment and Support Allowance ( ESA ). They use form SSP1 to support their application. If your employee’s SSP is ending you must send them form SSP1 either: within 7 days of their SSP ending, if it ends unexpectedly while they’re still sick.
How do I stop claiming ESA?
You do not need to do anything until you actually have a job, you must then cancel you ESA claim with effect from the day before you start work, you can do this over the phone but I would follow it up in writing.
