While on furlough my employer asked for voluntary redundancies which I volunteered for, which he accepted I have been employed for 10 full years by this company my employment will be terminated on 04/09/2020.
When he made up my redundancy package, he said I must take 3 weeks accrued holidays as part of my 10 weeks lieu of notice and he will only pay me 80% for the rest of 7 weeks as he is using the furlough scheme to pay my lieu of notice wages, surely this can't be legal as furlough is actually a job retention scheme.
Any help would be much appreciated.
