Employers will be able to put staff on part-time furlough, claiming the CJRS grant for a portion of their salary.
Employers will only be able to claim going forward if they have previously claimed under the pre-1 July scheme; 3-week min furlough requirement under the current rules.
What is changing?
- July – same basis as now (the lesser of 80% of pay and £2,500)
- August – the CJRS will continue to pay 80% of wages
- September – the CJRS will pay 70% of wages while employers will take on the other 10%
- October – the CJRS will pay 60% of wages while employers will take on the other 20%
NOTE: Employees must have been furloughed under the current scheme (CJRS V1) for them to be eligible for a furlough grant under the revised scheme (CJRS V2). So, in practice, only employees who have been included in a furlough grant claim made before 1 July 2020 can be furloughed under CJRS V2
