Furlough scheme deadline

The Government’s furlough scheme, the Job Retention Scheme, will close to new entrants on Wednesday 10 June.

If your firm is considering taking advantage of the scheme in the future, including the new arrangements for part-time furloughing, relevant employees must be entered into the scheme by that deadline.
