COVID-19 in 19 Teleconference: UK Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme – what next for employers?
May 19, 2020
Authored by: Adam Turner, Mark Kaye and Nikeeta Mahay
We are holding a regular series of bite-sized 19-minute teleconferences on the key COVID-19 employment law issues employers need to think about.
Our second teleconference looks at the UK government’s furlough scheme. The UK government recently announced that the scheme will extend until 31 October 2020, albeit in a different format from 1 August 2020.
This session will cover:
- Key aspects of the current furlough scheme.
- Some of the practical issues that employers are currently experiencing under the furlough scheme.
- An overview of the proposed changes to the furlough scheme.
- Issues to consider after 1 August 2020.
- The next “cliff-edge”.
