- you had a PAYE payroll scheme in operation before 28 February 2020
- you’re eligible to receive State Aid under the EU Commission Temporary Framework.
- have coronavirus
- are self-isolating and unable to work from home
- are shielding because they’ve been advised that they’re at high risk of severe illness from coronavirus.
