On 1 November, the job support scheme replaced furlough with a funding package which will mean an employee will only need to work 20% of their usual hours to benefit.

The government has also cut the level of employer contribution from 33% – to just 5%, meaning the government will pay 62% of a worker’s wages for the time they are away from their job.

We want to hear about your experiences.
