Details

This is an Experimental Official Statistics publication produced by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) using HMRC’s Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme claims data.

This publication covers all Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme claims submitted by employers from the start of the scheme up to 31 July 2020. It includes statistics on the claims themselves and the jobs supported.

Data from HMRC’s Real Time Information (RTI) system has been matched with Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme data to produce the following breakdowns of claims by:

  • employer size
  • sector of the economy (including by country and region)
  • geography
  • age and gender
  • number of employments furloughed per day

For more information on Experimental Statistics and governance of statistics produced by public bodies please see the UK Statistics Authority website.
