New guidance has been announced on the £9 billion Job Retention Bonus, set to benefit millions of businesses.

The scheme is designed to continue to support jobs through the UK’s economic recovery from coronavirus by encouraging and helping employers to retain as many employees who’ve been on furlough as possible. New guidance sets out the information employers who have furloughed employees need to know in order to claim the bonus from the 15 February until 31 March 2021.

For further information please click here.
Last week the Chancellor announced the Job Support Scheme as the successor to the current furlough. The Job Support Scheme is designed to protect viable jobs in businesses who are facing lower demand over the winter months due to Covid-19, to help keep their employees attached to the workforce. The scheme will open on 1 November 2020 and run for 6 months.

A Job Support Scheme factsheet is available and explains what is covered by the grant, which employers and employees are eligible, and how to claim. For further information please click here.
