For Contribution Based ESA they will look at your NI Contributions during the Tax Years 2013-14 and 2014-15. Your husbands working hours will not be a factor.
Income Related ESA is dependant on your household income, your savings and assets, and any hours that your partner works. See
Asset rule for ESA(IR) 24 hour work rule for ESA(IR) Gordon
