<p>The Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme is open to any employer providing they have:
created and started a PAYE payroll scheme on or before 19 March 2020; enrolled for
PAYE online; a UK bank account. Employers can claim for employees on any type of employment
contract, providing they were employed on 19 March 2020 and were on the employer’s
PAYE payroll on or before 19 March 2020. As well as employees, the grant can be claimed
for other groups, such as agency workers employed by umbrella companies, where the
workers are paid through PAYE. Full guidance can be found at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/guidance/claim-for-wage-costs-through-the-coronavirus-job-retention-scheme"
