What Can I Claim?

Here is a complete guide to what Government assistance you can claim during the Covid19 pandemic.

Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme

The scheme, which is open to all UK businesses, provides employers with the support to continue to pay part of their employees’ wages that would have otherwise been laid off. It’s intended to run until end June 2020, but may be extended.

In the meantime, here are a few more helpful details including SSP, Guarantee Payments, and Legal Implications.

The service which employers and agents will use to provide the information required to access the grant scheme has now been launched.

If you have already begun the furlough process, please download our useful Furlough Capture Form to keep track of who has been furloughed.
