DAVIDH Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Furlough is employer instigated. There's no way someone could refuse to return to work, in preference to remaining on furlough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea14Ian Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 True but my section last year we was told 80% of which would be made redundant. Due to my age I thought it best to take VR.Two weeks later 100% made redundant. I only know two people in my section who got back into catering. There are many vacancies in pubs,Restaurants, Hotels and right across the board. Without knowing the circumstances regarding the pub hard to know why he doesn't have staff.I do agree however if furloughd staff have to return to work.

grendel Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 at work i believe everyone except senior management was furloughed for some time, I was off 3 weeks and came back to a 4 week backlog of work, but some were off a lot longer, dependent on workload. the managers who did continue working covering their teams voluntarily took a pay cut to 80% of their normal wage- all the way up to the CEO, as our work is loosly based on new construction, parts of our business dropped to 10% of pre covid work levels initially. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
