It’s currently an unsettling and difficult time for businesses but several measures have been announced by the Government in a bid to provide some support and ease any financial strain.
Further information on all of the Government support available and the conditions around each one can be found here but some of the key packages are highlighted below:
A temporary scheme for all UK employers, available for at least three months, effective from 1 March 2020. Its aim is to support employers whose business operations have been impacted by coronavirus.
Under the scheme, 80% of furloughed employees’ usual monthly wage costs (up to £2,500 a month) can be claimed for, in addition to the relevant Employer National Insurance contributions and minimum automatic enrolment employer pension contributions for the employee.
A business rates holiday has been provided for retail, leisure, hospitality and nursery businesses in England for the 2020 to 2021 tax year.
Additional Small Business Grant Scheme funding has been provided to local authorities for the support of small businesses that do not pay, or pay very little, business rates due to small business rate relief (SBRR), rural rate relief (RRR) and tapered relief.
A one-off grant of £10,000 can be provided to businesses that are eligible in order to help them with any financial difficulties.
Value Added Tax payments have been deferred by three months. For UK VAT registered businesses with VAT due between 20 March 2020 and 30 June 2020 payments can be deferred until a later date or paid as normal.
HMRC’s ‘Time to Pay’ allows businesses and the self-employed, who may be experiencing financial difficulties, to receive support with their taxes. These arrangements are agreed on a case by case basis and are tailored to each business.
Further information on support available is also available using the following links:
