We love watching Dishy-Rishi and his updates on behalf of Big G, and this time he did not disappoint, but did leave our heads spinning, just a little bit…..
“And bend, and stretch” Welcome to the all new ‘Flexible Furloughing’ straight from the yoga studio and raring to go!
🤓 From 1st July all businesses using the furlough scheme, will be able to bring back furloughed employees on a part time basis….
🤓 So, if your business doesn’t feel ready to bring back your employees on a full-time basis, they can come back on a part time basis…
🤓 Big G will pay 80% of the furloughed days, your business will pay for the days they work….
🤓 You just need to make sure the new working arrangements are in place for at least 1 week
🤓 But rest assured, if your business is not ready, you can still carry on with furloughing your staff on a full-time basis
“Money, money, money, Must be funny, in a Rishi-world” lots to learn on the new amounts Big G is happy to contribute to your employee’s pay….. Here goes…
🤓 June and July: no change people, no change!
🤓 August: Big G still contributes 80% but YOU pay the Employer’s NI and Pension
🤓 September: Big G contributes 70% of employee wages, you make up the 10% (to total 80%) and pay the Employer’s NI and Pension
🤓 October: Big G contributed 60% of wages, you 20% and pay Employer’s NI and Pension
“Entries Closed, I say, ENTRIES CLOSED!” – Big G has put a CLOSING date in for furloughing your staff, with
👍👍 NO NEW ENTRANTS from the 30th JUNE 👍👍
That means your staff have to be furloughed by the 10th of June to hit the three week minimum furlough period, to be eligible by the 30th June…
Phhhhhhhheeeeeeeeweeeeeeee
