New Quick Poll: Are you planning to use the Job Retention Bonus?
12 August 2020
The Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS) will close at the end of October 2020, and businesses will be beginning to think about bringing more employees back to work on a full-time basis. In light of this, the CIPP’s Policy and Research team wanted to ask how many businesses were intending on accessing the Job Retention Bonus.
The team has added a new Quick Poll to the News Online page, and would like members to respond, where possible. We understand that payroll professionals are extremely busy individuals at the moment, but the Poll should take less than a minute to respond to, and we would really appreciate any feedback that we receive.
The Job Retention Bonus was announced within the Summer Economic Statement, and will be paid to businesses who bring employees back to work after a period of furlough, who remain in employment from 1 November 2020 to 31 January 2021.Employees must earn an average of at least £520 per month in that three-month period. If the qualifying criteria are met, then employers will receive a one-off payment of £1,000 per employee.
