Employees are eligible for the grant and can be placed on furlough, if they are unable to work because they have caring responsibilities resulting from coronavirus (COVID-19).
Caring responsibilities include caring for children who are at home as a result of school and childcare facilities closing, or caring for a vulnerable individual in their household.
