    Confused about where I stand in this position.

    I am employed in the entertainment industry. I have being receiving the wage subsidy scheme through work.

    €350 per week. I don't receive a top up. This is roughly half of the previous salary I was getting.

    In the last few weeks Its becoming more apparent that the industry wont return till 2021. I do as much WFH as possible social media, responding to emails etc, I check and maintain the building regularly.

    Three weeks ago I was told the subsidy would be dropping to €200 in September based on the assumption that everywhere was open again and that employers would be in a position to top people up. As stated above I my industry wont be back to work so My employer wont be in a position to top me up.

    If I take up a second job part time that help me make ends meet will I have to remove myself from the wage subsidy scheme?

    I'll still be working for my primary job from home and working a second job in the evening/late night.
