We have created a dedicated hub to support businesses during the COVID pandemic on issues such as furlough, which we update regularly. Given the difficult time many businesses are facing we have made this hub accessible to everyone as part of our social responsibility. The government changes furlough rules regularly and we will note on our hub when our advice is updated. Our dedicated hub can be found here
