@MartinSLewis I had to make distressing phone calls to a third of our staff this week as the #jobretentionscheme portal confirmed our #newstarterfurlough staff could not be claimed for despite working since end Feb/early March because our pay day and returns are the end of the month. #notover
@DeborahMeaden In our case if we want to offer the same package to all of our staff we’ll have to continue to cash flow the new starters as they fall outside the #JRSdeadline. Sadly not an option for us as a startup business. #newstarterjustice
This is across the Board... people I know funding their furloughed employees personally waiting for cash to come in. The support is good but delivery too slow.
It’s looking like some of our staff are going to have to apply for UC as they joined us after the #JRSdeadline and can’t get help from previous employers. Can you help @PaulHowellMP?

As an employer it feels completely wrong to be able to offer to pay some staff but not all. We’re a brand new business and sadly just don’t have the cash built up to be able to support those that aren’t part of the gov’t job retention scheme. #newstarterprotest#newstarterjustice
Great to see the #newstarterfurlough scheme injustices being raised. As a new business we’d love to support all of our staff including those who just missed the Feb PAYE deadline. #newstarterjustice#askrishi
