As coronavirus sweeps the nation, millions of workers have been furloughed in response to the pandemic. The temporary leave means employers can access support from the government to pay wages to avoid mass redundencies.
But one of the rules of furlough is that you cannot do any work for your employer while on leave. However, you can volunteer to help with the coronavirus outbreak - so long as it's not with your organisation.In fact, people are being encouraged to sign up to help the NHS as it deals with the pressure of this unprecedented crisis.The government guidance for the moment is clear, unless you are carrying out an essential role, stay at home.But there are still plenty of ways you can volunteer during the outbreak.
