They wouldn't be classed as 'earning' they're not there.
it will be classed as a windfall. and it's highly unlikely to be more than the allowed limit where they are not entitled to receive any benefits.

it's just who is liable to pay. the companies or the government.
but they can argue about that amongst themselves.
