Important Criteria Clarification for Wage Subsidy

Finance Minister Grant Robertson has clarified this afternoon that if a business is claiming the COVID-19 wage subsidy, the workers it is claimed for must remain employees for the period of the subsidy , which is 12 weeks. This may materially impact the decisions businesses are making.
