    Your contract of employment cannot normally be amended without your consent. If you are contracted to work for a set number of hours a week, you should be paid for those hours. What did your furlough agreement say?

    What rights you have will depend on how long you have worked there.

    Sounds like you're boss is comitting an illegal act. Are you a union member? If so they will sort it for you.
