But they can’t cancel the furlough or get him to do only 1 delivery, he was notified he was on furlough last week, so if the company are going to apply to government aid then he must be on furlough for another 2 weeks during which he time he can’t do any work for them, not even 1 delivery. The only option without breaking the rules would be if the company didn’t apply for the money from the government for last weeks furlough payment but self funded it themselves instead.

They can cancel the furlough any time they like. The requirement for the grant is the employee must be on furlough a minimum of  3 weeks so if they employer brings them into work then clearly they can't then claim for that whole 3 week period.
