The Pensions Regulator set out its expectations of employers in its statement on 20 March 2020. They expect all employers to continue contributing in full and on time during the Covid-19 pandemic. Plus, they’ll be tracking the reporting of and maintaining data on individual employers.
However, they’ve confirmed they’ll take a proportionate and risk-based approach towards compliance and enforcement decisions, with the aim of supporting you and your employees.
More information about the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme can be found on the government’s website where you can find a step-by-step guide to claiming your employees’ wages.
