So I’m on furlough. A couple of weeks ago had discussions with work about my return when furlough ends in november.
They want to cut my hours by 1/3 as not enough work etc. That’s fine, we agreed I’d think about it and let them know end of their month what hours I wanted to do etc.
Now this new scheme has happened. Does this mean i go back as agreed on 66% hours and then they have to top up the 1/3rd of remaining hours as per the scheme or can they just opt to not take part in the scheme even though Im on reduced hours?
I was going to propse I go back on 50% hours and then with the top up they won’t be paying more than they were already proposing but I will get more as will get government top up.
