Carers Allowance but if you work...?

Can anyone please confirm for me...carers are made aware that they can earn up to £100 and it not affect their carers allowance, which sounds lovely. But if they receive housing benefit, won't whatever they earn just get taken away and they have to put their wages towards the rent? Perhaps apart from about £20 like IS rules?
I find it very infuriating that people aren't made aware of this. I even tried ringing the carers assessment number and they know nothing about this, only about carers allowance which you could write on the back of a postage stamp!
