If you cannot maintain your current workforce because your operations have been severely affected by coronavirus (COVID-19), you can furlough employees and apply for a grant that covers 80% of their usual monthly wage costs, up to £2,500 a month, plus the associated Employer National Insurance contributions and minimum automatic enrolment employer pension contributions on that wage.

The online service you’ll use to claim is not available yet. We expect it to be available by the end of April 2020. For further details, please click here:- https://www.gov.uk/guidance/claim-for-wage-costs-through-the-coronavirus…
