Think about it

Re: Trade deals

I don't need to think about it. When you make things up, you should at least do enough research to check they are plausible.

Re: Trade deals

Don't you think he would already have tried that ?

Re: Trade deals

Or untill the government cancels the furlough scheme, as has just
happened ??
But the nett result is, the government pays !

Donkeyman! 🤔🤔

Exactly DM.

Re: Trade deals

He doesn't need to try it; he simply needs to do it.

Re: Trade deals

And what if it didn't work and his employees have either got other jobs on more money or don't want to come back to work ? He has to give them notice so they will just sit on their arse for another furloughed 4 weeks then get a job on more money somewhere else, like a lot of them are already doing.

Re: Trade deals

The decision to furlough workers is made by the employer. If he furloughs them, he continues to pay them, and then claims it back from the government. If he then asks his employees to return to work, and they refuse, then, unless he is an idiot, he would stop paying them, and no longer claim the furlough money from the government.

Re: Trade deals

He's not an idiot at all. I thought you were supposed to be the principled, caring left and all you seem to do is throw insults around.

Typical multi-millionaire socialist.

You should also read my posts properly. Just saying' like

Re: Trade deals

Then he must not have been paying them enough to start with, and he is lucky they didn't find better payed jobs earlier.

He stops their furlough money and advertises for staff.

If they refused to work, they would be breaking their contract of employment, and would not be entitled to any notice. They would not be on furlough any longer; the employer decides when furlough comes to an end.
