Newbie to this Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 I believe, they cannot be forced to work, but the employer has no obligation to then pay them at all. If they cannot work from home and the work can be done whilst adhering to social distancing they cannot demand furlough as far as I am aware.

Oldgun Posted April 17, 2020 Report Share Posted April 17, 2020 Will these foreign workers be tested for the corona virus,i don't think so,surely you can't just bring large numbers of people into the county without some sort of check.Just as we are supposed to be reaching a plateau and then hopefuly a reduction in the number of cases, we have a few thousand coming from easten Europe and a few more from India. When so many people have been in lock down (my wife for 12 weeks, had treatment for cancer) to me it does not make sense for thousands of people to come into the country without some sort of checks.(nearly put Cheks).
