This probably sounds complicated so I appreciate any and all advice. I'm going to keep details vague as I don't want to be identified.
I started my new job at the beginning of January 2020 working for AB. I am AB's first and only employee.
COVID 19 hit and I was no longer needed but because AB didn't set me up as PAYE until the end of March, I didn't get furloughed. Instead AB has been paying me a retainer of 10% of my monthly wage to ensure I come back to work when I'm needed. I'm £100s out of pocket now and have struggled financially.
I have been looking for another job and I want to know what will happen financially if I quit my current job. Would I have to pay back the retainer?
What if I returned to my job for 1 or 2 weeks and quit? Would I need to pay the retainer back then as I have technically returned to work?
Stupidly, I don't have a contract of employment (despite my efforts) so only need to provide a weeks notice I believe?
The only thing in writing is 10% retainer on my payslip each month.
