If you’re claiming on or after 1 July 2020 for 100 or more employees, you’ll need to upload a file containing each of the employee’s:
- full name
- National Insurance number (or payroll reference number if you do not have this)
- payroll reference number (sometimes called a pay identify or staff number)
- furlough start and end date (using the format DD/MM/YYYY)
- full amount claimed (pounds and pence)
- normal hours (using decimals, for example 7.5)
- actual hours worked (using decimals)
- furloughed hours (using decimals)
You’ll need to ensure that you:
- provide only the employee information requested here – you might be asked again
- submit one line per employee for the whole period
- do not break up the calculation into multiple periods within the claim
- do not split data by contract type (for example, those paid weekly and monthly should be claimed for together)
- upload your file as an .xls, .xlsx, .csv or .ods using the templates on this page when you claim
