You have my sympathy. My new job started last week and now I'm laid off, too. The social isolation bit sucks, too. It's a worry but it will come to an end and we can all have fun making up for lost time. Chin up, we'll get through this.

It’s one of the shitty realities of all this that job losses and recession is inevitable.

My sympathies are with anyone that’s lost their job, I’m freelance in my profession and I’m fully expecting to have some very tough months ahead.

I do keep reminding myself that I could be worse off, I have my health and my beautiful penis which I’m both very thankful for.

Try and keep smiling everyone

The measures announced today aren’t loans, they are grants so the govt will foot the bill, with no time limit set (yet).

Yes nursing homes and hospitals.Agency workers will lose out as many places are on lock down so might not use them as much as usual! Good to go on bank or relief as you will be used before the agency worker as it’s cheaper!

That’s for businesses and is separate. If employees are PAYE the employers can claim 80% of their salary to pay them up to a

I dont know how they will work it yet. I'd hope self employed get this payment too. Most likely it's already been discussed as self employed offer a lot to the economy.

To anybody that has lost their job today my heart goes out to you all it can’t be easy for you.As has been stated on this thread supermarkets are hiring and so are their distribution centres please consider it as a short term measure until you get back on your feet.Also don’t be ashamed to claim Universal Credit or Jobseekers Allowance contribution based.Each time you claim benefits your national insurance contributions are paid by the government so when you get to pension age there shouldn’t be a shortfall in your state pension

It doesn’t mean everyone made redundant will get paid 80% of their wages. It means if companies temporarily lay off workers but don’t terminate their contracts then the employer can claim a grant for 80% of their employees contracted wage to enable them to pay them 80% still. Plus it’s the employers choice whether to top up themselves the extra 20%. The point is it will keep people employed technically so when we come out of this they can still have jobs and the employers will then be Able to revert back to paying as before. It can be backdated also to 1st March. So if you were laid off in last couple weeks talk to your employer and if they are willing to take u back on u can receive this 80%

"I dont no yet what's happening I've to be informed yet whether they gonna pay me the 80 percent

They have to. Its government money, not your employers.

The employers have to claim it though. Hopefully they will!

They will have to through PAYE. It will be a legal requirement.

Oh good. I wasn’t sure about that bit x

Well I have assumed that bit...Oops

HMRC know who is on PAYE so I am assuming the employer won't have a say in it.

I don’t think it’s automatic to everyone though. Surely employers who are still running ok will be paying as normal? I assumed it’s just for businesses that are struggling to pay?

That part isn't clear actually. Hopefully we should know more very soon.

It doesn’t mean everyone made redundant will get paid 80% of their wages. It means if companies temporarily lay off workers but don’t terminate their contracts then the employer can claim a grant for 80% of their employees contracted wage to enable them to pay them 80% still.

Hopefully that means that some of those who have been laid off may be kept on.

Yes it’s an incentive for employers not to make staff permanently redundant and as it can be backdated it should mean a lot of people who have been made redundant by twitchy fingered employers these last couple weeks can be sorted also. As an employer I was pretty impressed really by this initiative. I’d been holding back making any staff redundant until I saw what the government support would be but now I can temporarily lay off, make up the additional 20% and keep all staff on full money until the economy picks up. Win win

"80 percent.yes that is right. Fingers crossed your job will now be safe.

Only available for salaried people. !! Mr Sunak said he’s used this to be available for the majority of people!!! So us on paid per hour are fooked.

Yet people who are on salaried pay and probably being paid anyway are ok. !! Thanks for that "

Nope I'm hourly and im.getting the 80 ,%

Hope those that have been laid off get something soon, even if it's 80%. My shop is looking like it's going bust, so but it's only 2 wages, I guess being a lowly partner means I've lost my paddle up this shit creek

To top it off I'm feeling shit so in isolation, can't open the shop to help the couple customers who may need it.

No, the 5 week wait and the appointment in the job centre have been scrapped, it's immediate. Also speak to your employer as they will be able to give you 80% depending on how you were finished.

This shouldn’t make a difference to whether your employer can claim the 80% grant. As long as you are/were in employment on 29th Feb then this can be implemented if you employer does it. If u wanna message me direct with your actual predicament then I will give u my advice. If your employer isn’t going under then he’s gotta be a lot of an arsehole if he/she doesn’t do this for u

. Unfortunately that’s how it is when you are used to a certain routine ie get up , journey to work , work , then journey home.Then start all over again.Hopefully you will find something to keep you occupied and will find employment soon.Best of luck with everything.

"This thread is heartbreaking to read

These are such horrible times, thinking of you all xxhey life goes on, i have no work self employed and no prospect of work, no prospect of help from government and just booked and paid for an all inclusive holiday end of may, can't even get a reply to my emails but I'm still happy at least the Ops getting 80% of her money which is great

No prospect of help from the Government ? I think we will find more help announced this week to support the self employed so keep the faith, we will all get through this i will get through it nothing changes my mood but having faith in the system of help this country offers has long since dissipated, the problem is always in the beaurocracy and can you imagine how long it will take to get a reply for help lol we'd have starved to death "

Yes I’m interested to see how long this talk of a grant takes to materialize.

Ok so

Average potential weekly wage payments

£200 ?

Perhaps for 20 million

That's 4 billion a week

And no one pays in

There's still taxes coming in from people a stll working.

The Ministry of Defence gets billions each year so I'm sure the UK government will be able to get the funds from somewhere by offsetting.

I will happily take the upto £25k Grant for each of my businesses. I’m led to believe that local councils are going to be sorting it. Any help the government is prepared to give, helps me to top up my staff and keep them all employed and on full pay thru this downturn

That's where helicopter money comes in. Unlimited money printing by central banks in an attempt to keep the whole thing from collapsing. It will pile on more debt that can never be repayed and will trigger hyperinflation soon enough

I suppose I'm luck with my job no matter what happens even a total lock down I will still have to come to work. Oh the joys of security. But it feel sad for all those people who will not be working and having to struggle

No a loan you have to repay, a grant you don’t. I’ve read the gov website and as it reads I will be receiving 25k for each of my properties that are applicable

A grant is a form of government aid and doesn’t need to be paid back. A loan is an entirely different thing. They are also offering loans but that has to be paid back although they will cover the interest for first 12 months plus any up front fees charged by the lender.

Millions of people are getting help. And there’s more to come. I actually think the initiatives already announced have been very good. And like I said earlier I’m sure the self employed will soon have similar help
