Legal for employer to reclaim furlough from me if HMRC decide they shouldn't have used furlough?!

Hence why your employer said " except for statutory guarantee payments". Legal obligations will be fulfilled.philmusic said:So is that their way of getting out of paying us anything and also meaning they don't have to pay us redundancy as on paper we are still employees?!0 -
Weeks you are not paid are not included in the 12 weeks for calculating redundancy pay. See https://www.gov.uk/redundancy-your-rights/being-selected-for-redundancy0

If they reclaim it, and thus pay you nothing, would that mean they are breaching min wage rules?0

The repayment is in respect of furlough, and minimum wage does not apply to furlough pay. Workers on minimum wage may be paid less than that where employers are recouping past debt out of the wage.Andy_L said:If they reclaim it, and thus pay you nothing, would that mean they are breaching min wage rules?1
