Employers who are wanting to receive a grant are required to complete their online application by 31st July 2020. Employers will need to finalise the calculation of payments and claims. For each following calendar month, a series of changes will occur with the introduction of CJRS part two which offers flexible furlough. The CJRS will close on 31st October 2020.
