Petition Action

Support freelancers paid via umbrella companies to be furloughed at 80% av wage.

Petition Details

650k umbrella workers have been waiting 5 weeks for the governement and HMRC to clarify guidelines on freelancers paid PAYE via Umbrella Comapnies. We have lost contracts and have no income. We need the same support as all other PAYE workers on the Job Retention scheme.

Additional Information

Five weeks has been too long we need answers sooner than later and for the guidelines to be clear in order for the umbrella comapnies to follow protocol in furloughing their freelancers.
