A number of changes have been made to the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme since its inception back in March 2020. Please be aware that Wednesday 10th June is the final day that employees can be furloughed if you wish to make use of the scheme in later months of the year.

Surprise visits will be used to check they are following the rules. Those in England could be fined up to £1,000 if they fail to self-isolate.
