Please sign the petition to get the government to give temp workers furlough pay between gigs. If you can share it a d get others to share that would be great. Thank you for your time.sorry if I'm not mean to post this here.

I’m in the same boat, agency keep saying they are looking into it and have to fit certain criteria. It would be much more helpful if they just said ‘no’ so that I’m not in limbo. I definitely won’t be seeking work from them after this has ended. Just like there are many people looking for work, there are also many agencies looking for workers. 

I won't be going back to my agency either.

Me neither.

I think it'll be unlikely that many, if any, agencies or umbrella companies will be furloughing anyone:
