Am I still able to attend alarm call outs at business premise if I am furloughed or is this classed as working?

    The policy says
    To be eligible for the subsidy, when on furlough, an employee can not undertake work for or on behalf of the organisation. This includes providing services or generating revenue. While on furlough, the employee’s wage will be subject to usual income tax and other deductions.

    So in theory no

    No, you can't carry out any kind of work for the company if you are furloughed.
