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 May 2021. It includes statistics on the claims themselves and the jobs supported.

In addition, reference tables for the first Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme extension (1 November 2020 to 30 April 2021) have been published alongside this release. These tables include figures for use of furlough at the end of each month during the period of the extension, alongside the eligible population for the first Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme extension. The figures at 30 April 2021 can be found in these reference tables.

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

  • daily number of employments on furlough
  • employer size
  • sector of the economy
  • geography
  • age and gender
  • use of flexible furlough
