Working told stay home without pay

kbacc · 2020-03-12 19:11:43

So what do we do if we are told to stay at home as our workplace is closing down or limiting the workforce and we don't get paid? What scheme do we apply to so that we can pay our bills?

Assuming you will just go onto welfare, wouldnt it be great if they had a system where you got based out, based on what you paid in? assuming you will jump through hoops to get it, the wasters have first dibs on it all...

Surely its a temporary layoff and you would be entitled to social welfare.

Not really current affairs.
