Furlough, Permitted work and ESA was created by andymit
I having been doing supported permitted work now for nearly 2 years, and am wondering if because of the virus I am allowed to be furloughed as has been offered to me.

I have taken the furlough as my post has been temporarily suspended due to the virus, will this get me trouble?

Hi Andy

If you have permission for doing the supported work, the DWP must be aware of wages you receive. What you receive on the furlough is only 80% of that. You can inform the DWP. You certainly haven't done anything wrong.
