Salary support scheme re-opens to businesses

The Salary Support Scheme is being re-opened to all businesses that were able to claim during last year’s lockdown.

It's designed to ensure businesses impacted by the circuit break action can continue to pay their employees.

The method of claiming remains the same, along with the amount of support, which provides up to £280 for a full-time equivalent employee per week.

The scheme will be open for an initial period beginning up until the end of January.

For further information on the scheme, you can call 648 125.
