Coronavirus Statutory Sick Pay Rebate Scheme goes live
On 26 May, HMRC opened up its Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) rebate claim service. Eligible employers are able to recoup up to two weeks' worth of SSP payments made to employees off work for coronavirus (COVID-19)-related reasons since 13 March 2020 (16 March 2020 if the employee was shielding). This is an ongoing scheme for which an end date has not yet been announced.
