I have 1 member of staff on a zero hours contract who has been told they are unfurloughed as of 30th Sept and will be working variable hours in October. They are paid in arrears so the hours they record on their October timesheet will be paid on November payroll. Their manager has told them they will receive no pay in October but I would have thought they would receive the average pay we have been paying previously in October as usual on the basis they were unable to work for us during September. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks in anticipation
