Submitting HMRC Furlough Claims:
At French Duncan we have already submitted over £2.5m of client furlough claims to HMRC, meaning that monies are already on the way into their bank accounts to ease any cash flow worries.
We could also help you submit yours. If you'd like to discuss simply email Linda Kelly, our Head of Payroll, at L.Kelly@frenchduncan.co.uk.
Furlough Template:
The government updated their guidance on the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme on 5th April 2020. One of the key features of this update is that employers MUST confirm furlough arrangements in writing with their staff, and keep a record of this communication for 5 years.
On this basis, we are providing the option of downloading our FREE TEMPLATE for furloughing staff:
