Thoughts please! Does anyone know if it’s possible for any employee to sell their additional holidays days (accrued over the statutory minimum of 5.6 weeks per year) and to use this amount to top up their furlough amount?
Contractually I’m thinking no but if the employee gives consent is it possible? Heads is frazzled. Could be a good option for them to use up their holiday and to keep a steady/slightly higher monthly income.
Thank you!

If this is a contractual allowance above statutory minima then I can see no reason it cannot be varied, if that's what both parties agree to do. In effect you will simply be paying for extra days/hours of absence during the lock-down instead of later, when return to work is possible.
