The Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme

Tuesday 31st March 2020

Sterling - The Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme

The government has confirmed that they will reimburse 80% of workers’ wages if they are made Furlough. From what we understand, Umbrella employees will be entitled to this and self-employed contractors with Sterling CIS and Sterling Techserv will be able to make a claim directly with HMRC themselves.

Once we receive further clarification from the government we will be in a position to confirm in detail, how you are able to claim and when and how frequently you can expect to receive your payments. Rest assured we will be ready to act as soon as this information becomes available.

For further information, you may find the below link from the government website useful, or you can contact Sterling on 01925 626200 where a member of the team will be happy to assist your query.
