Chelsea have told their matchday staff they will be paid in full this month despite the season being in a state of shutdown, according to Goal.com.
The Premier League giants will fund the wages of casual workers themselves, rather than using the government's furlough scheme.
Stewards, hospitality staff and club legends who work in the premium seating areas, including Kerry Dixon and Ron Harris, will all benefit from the club's decision.
WHAT DOES FURLOUGH MEAN?
When an employee is placed on furlough they are temporarily put on a leave of absence and not paid, although they remain on the payroll, meaning that they do not lose their job.
