What are the availability requirements for part-time eligible workers?—RCW 50.20.119.

(1) If you are a part-time eligible worker as defined in RCW 50.20.119, you may limit your availability for work to 17 or fewer hours per week. You may refuse any job of 18 or more hours per week.
(2) You must be available for work during the usual hours for your occupation. For example, if your occupation normally requires both day and evening hours of work, you must be available for work both day and evening hours.
(3) You must be available for work all days of the week that are usual for your occupation, even if you have not worked those days in the past. If you are not available for work on any day that is a usual day of work for your occupation, we will reduce your benefits under RCW 50.20.130. For example, if your occupation usually works Monday through Friday, you must be available for work Monday through Friday, even if you have only worked weekends in the past.
