I have been talking to some people who are under furlough since the lockdown.
A friend of mine who works in a non-profit says his charity has given their staff full furlough, they are paying 20% to their employees while they are off, the Government pays the rest.
However, I have been speaking to some staff in the private sector in West Kent, and the staff, who are on very low income, anyway, say their employers have not valued them and haven’t paid them 20%. It has left them with a bit of bad taste in their mouth. The employers making it looks like they are great for keeping them on but not wanting to pay any of their supposedly valued staff.
Tell me your experiences.
