Mid Sussex MP Mims Davies is urging employers to check if they can claim for their employee’s wages via the extended Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme. If eligible, employers would be able to furlough their staff up to the end of March 2021 due to the impact of COVID-19 and the new national restrictions.
Mims Davies comments:
“The Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme is being extended until 31 March 2021 and 30 November 2020 is the last day employers can submit or change claims for periods ending on or before 31 October 2020. I therefore urge employers who think they may be eligible for this scheme to check here.
Having talked to so many businesses across Mid Sussex, I understand how incredibly difficult this year has been but I would like to encourage constituents by saying that help and support for businesses is available.”
End.
