Definition: If you're ill or disabled, Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) offers you financial support if you're unable to work, or personalised help so that you can work if you are able to. You can apply for ESA if you're employed, self-employed or unemployed. You might be transferred to ESA if you've been claiming other benefits like Income Support or Incapacity Benefit.
