Furlough - if you work in payroll
Surely every company will have at least one person who cannot be furloughed - the person who does payroll, as how else would all other employees be paid? Is it therefore possible to be furloughed for 3 weeks on, then one week off to do payroll, then return to furlough again? Thanks
