    Your standard terms of employment still apply.

    You still get paid standard notice period as normal. If you have enhanced notice period they may be able to pay you your furlough rate depending on your contract that for that period. 
  • Can you be on furlough and not be paid by your employer? To explain i was on furlough april and may and in may i got my furlough payment for april,then in june i got no furlough payment for may.The reason given is that because i am paid the month following i was back to work in june thefore not on furlough and as i did not earn any hrs in may i am not entitled to anything,i was given a goodwill payment by the company of about 50%.Surely 2 months furlough is exactly that regardless of when your payslip arrives.

    If you were furloughed for 2 months under the CJRS, you should have received at least 80% of your reference salary for those 2 months.
