Indeed it is.
One odd thing though, when I was claiming the dole once, the advisor told me that if I wanted to volunteer to help a charity this wouldn't be held against me and I could still claim full benefits, he seemed a little put out when I said no chance, so far as I'm concerned voluntary work is done on top of a full time job not instead of and until I was working charities could and probably would survive without me.
