  • Furlough) Faqs
    Job Retention Scheme (Furlough) FAQs Practical Guidance What is the Job Retention Scheme - Furlough? On Friday 20 March, the Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced that the government set up a new package of support for businesses which is called the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme. Under this scheme, the government plans to step in and help pay the wages of people who would otherwise be laid off without pay or made redundant as a result of the Coronavirus crisis. This means that under the scheme employers can claim a grant covering 80% of the wages for a furloughed employee, subject to a cap of £2,500 a month. 1. Will I be put on furlough? We will initially look for volunteers, however, we will need to ensure that we have the right skill base in each business unit to ensure we can run our operations. If you are on furlough you will receive a letter outlining the details and what it means for you. You will be required to sign and accept the terms. 2. How long will I be on furlough for? Initially this will be for a period of 3 weeks. The current scheme expires on 31st May 2020 although the government may decide to extend this. 3. Will I be paid whilst on furlough? Yes, you will receive payment for 80% of your wages up to a maximum of £2,500 whichever is the lowest. The Company will pay an additional top up make up payment of 20% of your base salary 4. What happens if I decline furlough? We are hoping that we can manage furlough through the voluntary process, however, if we cannot do this, we will base our decisions on the skills requirement of each business unit.

  • Voluntary Furlough Guidelines
    VOLUNTARY FURLOUGH GUIDELINES Under the authority of Proviso 117.67 of the Annual Appropriations Act, a voluntary furlough is a cost saving measure in which employees voluntary take unpaid leave but ensure continuity of benefits for a specific period of time. Eligibility: • An employee may request a voluntary furlough of not more than ninety calendar days per fiscal year. • All employees in FTE, Research Grant, and Time-Limited positions as well as exempt temporary employees are eligible, with the exception that employees with an H1B visa status may not participate in a voluntary furlough. • Hourly employees (non-exempt temporary employees) and student employees are not eligible for voluntary furlough. • Certain federal and other external funds may be restricted by a voluntary furlough. It is the responsibility of the department to research and determine if a voluntary furlough is restricted by such funds at the time of the request. Utilization of Furlough Days: • Voluntary furloughs for exempt employees must be taken in weekly increments, five full days in the same work week, and cannot include partial weeks. Exempt employees also cannot take a 5 day voluntary furlough during a week in which a university holiday occurs. • For non-exempt employees, furlough days must be taken in full day increments. • All furlough days must be taken within the current fiscal year. • Furlough days must be used in place of paid leave (e.g. Annual Leave, Sick Leave) Salary Payments: • Employees are not paid their salaries or any ongoing additional salary payments (e.g. salary supplements) while in furlough status. The reduction in salary occurs at the time the furlough is taken.

  • Implications of Covid-19 for Modern Slavery Challenges in Supply Chain Management
    Implications of Covid-19 for modern slavery challenges in supply chain management July 2021 Authors: Dr Bruce Pinnington, Dr Joanne Meehan and Dr Alex Trautrims Research by: Implications of Covid-19 for modern slavery challenges in supply chain management Acknowledgements The investigators would like to acknowledge the important contributions made to the project by: representatives of our partner organisations (Kate Robinson, Clare Fitton and Owain Johnstone of ETI, Quintin Lake of Fifty Eight, and David Gigg formerly of the Crown Commercial Service); the project’s research associates (Reem Muaid, Selim Cakir, Anneke Schaefer and Matt Mitchell), and finally the staff of the Modern Slavery and Human Rights Policy and Evidence Centre itself for their helpful advice and comments. 2 Implications of Covid-19 for modern slavery challenges in supply chain management Introduction This report shares the results of an empirical study of 489 UK-based practitioners that examines if, and how, the new Covid-19 business landscape affects commitments to tackle modern slavery in corporate supply chains. In response to the pandemic, waves of lockdowns and restrictions around the world stopped demand for some industries, whilst simultaneously, in other industries, huge surges for particular products and services exceeded supply capacity. As firms and national governments scrambled to source scarce materials, the scale and severity of the unprecedented disruption has had debilitating ripple effects on workers in supply chains. Complex global supply chains are designed for efficiency, typically characterised by single sourcing with low-cost, geographically distant suppliers operating beyond tier one1. In the midst of the pandemic, whilst firms sought supply chain visibility to secure continuity of supply, the UK Government relaxed firms’ obligations to publish Transparency in Supply Chains (TiSC) statements2, as mandated under Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

  • Furloughs, Teleworking and Other Work Situations During the COVID-19 Lockdown: Impact on Mental Well-Being
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article Furloughs, Teleworking and Other Work Situations during the COVID-19 Lockdown: Impact on Mental Well-Being Israel Escudero-Castillo 1,* , Fco. Javier Mato-Díaz 1 and Ana Rodriguez-Alvarez 2 1 Department of Applied Economics, University of Oviedo, 33007 Oviedo, Spain; [email protected] 2 Department of Economics, University of Oviedo, 33007 Oviedo, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: As a consequence of the Spring 2020 lockdown that occurred in Spain due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many people lost their jobs or had to be furloughed. The objective of this study is to analyse the influence of the latter changes in labour market status on psychological well-being. For this purpose, an ad-hoc questionnaire featuring socio-demographic and mental health criteria was created. Granted that the pandemic can be viewed as an exogenous shock, the bias caused by the bidirectional problems between the work situation and mental well-being can be tackled. Results indicate that the lockdown exerted a greater negative effect on the self-perceived well-being of unemployed and furloughed persons than on those in employment. Moreover, among those in continuous employment, teleworkers experienced a lesser degree of self-perceived well-being post lockdown as compared to those people remaining in the same work location throughout the COVID-19 crisis. Finally, the lockdown provoked worse effects on the self-perceived well-being of women as compared to men, a result that appears to be related to gender differences in household production. In conclusion, these results could be especially relevant given that the evolution of the Citation: Escudero-Castillo, I.; pandemic is having ongoing effects on employment and, therefore, on the mental health of workers.

  • Furlough Planning Guide
    Office of Human Resources Furlough Planning Guide PLANNING/STRATEGY • The furlough process is covered under the Communicable Disease Mandatory Employees (CDME) policy and is not the same thing as a reduction-in-force (RIF). • Consider all cost saving mechanisms before considering a furlough. For example, reducing travel, professional development, other discretionary spending and reducing temporary employment in an effort to avoid furloughing permanent employees. If any temporary employees will be retained, you must provide a brief justification for the retention of any temporary employees serving in classifications affected by the furlough within the school/division or work unit. • Furlough requests submitted to the UNC System Office for review and approval on or after November 30, 2020 will require a minimum 60-day advance notification to employees prior to the commencement of the furlough if: • the request is for a full furlough of at least 30 consecutive calendar days, and/or • the request is for a partial furlough of at least 30 consecutive calendar days that reduces an employee’s FTE below 0.5. • Think holistically and equitably as you consider the financial implications for all employment types. • It is best to execute a furlough in a consistent manner for each member of an employment type. Doing so will minimize the administrative burden for TIM administrators and result in less confusion for employees. • Assess the impact of COVID-19 on the operational needs and financial outlook of the entire school/division. Furlough plans can consist of a combination of work units or the entire school/division. If multiple work units within a school/division are being considered, please submit one furlough plan worksheet that includes all affected work units.
