Step-by-step guide updated to reflect recent changes to the scheme, and a new key dates guide has also been published.
The Government has provided a step by step guide explaining the information that employers need to provide to HMRC to make a claim through the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS). It also describes the processes involved and includes an updated section on holiday pay, with further clarity on when employees can be furloughed.
