It's a National Insurance number you need. You've got to apply for one when you want to start work or make any claims. You can start owork without one but you need to apply as soon as possible and give it to your employer as soon as you can (you'll be paying emergency tax until you do).

Incidentally NIdirect is the go-to site for mist government functiuons in NI. It's a good starting place for information on pretty much anything administered by the state.
