Hello hope you are all keeping alright, riding the storm as they say.
Just wondering anyone know the legalities of the vulnerable 12 week rule?
Company made aware you are on 12 week vulnerable week list they inform you. You work in an environment with many people.
Basically I am trying to establish would you be allowed to let you carry on working as normal despite the company offering to pay two thirds of wages?
If they are not permitted to due to the risk can help be sought from other sources towards rent, council tax etc?

Hi @Bridget14 - it is certainly a very uncertain time for so many who are able to continue working. Scope has produced some helpful links here about what you could claim and furlough scheme https://www.scope.org.uk/advice-and-support/benefits-and-coronavirus/ Hope you find some information useful here.

Hi @Abdi_Scope Thank you for your help. I was able to find an answer to the question.
I know someone who is currently working in work place and is in vulnerable group. I was able to send the information onto them.
Hope you all keeping safe and well -

I don't know anybody that would want to voluntary be in the high risk group - life as you know it would stop.
