The answer is "no", because the basic income is *unconditional*.
This is an income, not at wage.

Definition from Wikipedia:
"A basic income (also called basic income guarantee, unconditional basic
income, universal basic income, universal demogrant,[1] or citizen’s
income) is a proposed system[2] of social security in which citizens or
residents of a country regularly receive a sum of money unconditionally,
either from a government or some other institution able to ensure an
equitable distribution of common wealth."
