Chid 6,844 Posted April 8, 2020 Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Seems minimum wage doesn't go up for anyone who's been put on furlough , seen as they use wages/salary from February to calculate your 80% .. bit of a downer for some of us who are living on the line Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's on the .gov website .. I only live round corner from my work so I'm not saving anything by not traveling in . Just a bit of a pisser cause I've still got the same bills to pay and infact I'm probably spending more on food seen as kids are constantly wanting to eat shite seen as there not in school lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
