You will probably have to give a bit of actual information if you want anybody to advise you.

Did that 80% hit the £2.5k?

Sorry, is employer allowed to furlough someone who's been injured at work is mainly what I'm asking and if not which law are they breaking. Thank you.

No the 80% of the basic is not enough to live on.

What flavour was the overtime? 

is the 80% under £2,500 a month or not? Overtime / your outgoings etc irrelevant on this point

(& they're probably doing you a bloody great favour unless you have a good enhanced sickness policy because 80% Of basic is going to be way better than SSP)

Thank you escaped, yes it's well under 2.5k

Provided your overtime payments are not discretionary, then they should be counted in calculation of the 80% of "wages". If they are not, nod your payroll person in the direction of this https://www.gov.uk/guidance/work-out-80-of-your-employees-wages-to-claim-through-the-coronavirus-job-retention-scheme#include

But as above, unless you have a really shiny sickness policy, you're going to be earning more on furlough than sick so don't get taken off furlough to be put on £95 / week sick pay

if the overtime was not contractual (it rarely is) then no it should not be counted. 

Can they fulrough him, yes, probs would he rather be on SSP?

oh - or wot Escaped said. 

and "injured AT WORK" = have a word with someone about whether there's a claim vs employer involved in that part. 

*insert compo face*

Thanks very much everyone.

Do they have a right to put you in furlough in your contract?

If not then you have to agree to go on furlough. 

You and your employer can agree any amount as between yourselves for how much you get paid.  The question is then what can the company claim back from the government - the overtime aspects of which are "complicated" as set out in Escaped's link.

Fuckin hell - new poster turns up - not happy with free munny they also want free legal advice.  

Scum. Sub-human scum.
