Thanks very much for posting this, kind of answers my question.

What if I am due to start a new job soon?
Our best guess is that you won’t be entitled to this wage unless you have been employed for at least a month prior to 1 March 2020, but hopefully we are wrong about this.
Yeah, hopefully.Our best guess is that you won’t be entitled to this wage unless you have been employed for at least a month prior to 1 March 2020, but hopefully we are wrong about this.
I'm glad to see in your original link that fit people who decide to self-isolate are not entitled to be paid, well, anything.
Context: my OH is a head of HR at a charity, and she is wading through cases of staff who have decided to stay at home and are somewhat vexed not to be on full pay.

That’s not the role of a Head though. She should be setting high level strategy, initial process and mapping out any appeal process and who should be dealing with it. Individual case management is down to the lower levels of management usually, with some support form HR, rather than a Head of micromanaging each individual case.

I'll let her know.
We've furloughed our HR as a support function in one of my jobs! I though Human Remains were usually the last people to sack themselves!
Been told not to use the "xxxthing@oracleyyy..." address and to send all e-mail re HR issues to your line manager and xx@HR whom is usually the Head of HR for the best part of somewhere between 3,000 to 7,000 people.
And also been told as we've been Fur-mucked we are to do no work from home from today including answering e-mails and company phones must be turned off for the foreseeable and company vehicles / vehicles leased under the co car scheme must not be used. How will we find out when we have been un-Fur-roughed? My co vehicle for that work is in the work compound and my computer and work phone have been left in our offices!
E-mailed before getting chucked out today "xxxthing@oracle..." OoO reply "sorry due to CV 19 we are having high levels of demand, we will respond in the next 14 days". Phone line states they will not answer and to e-mail!!!!!
Glad it wasn't my main job!!!!!!
