- Unpacking the Easy-Aid guide for employers (reduced work time benefits/illness benefits/dependents benefits)
- Employers/clients who pay weekly wages - should pay their staff in advance for the duration of the lock down period and wait for compensation from the UIF and if the UIF will pay the employer or employee.
- How will the temporary lay-offs be treated for UIF and what is the expected turn-around time for claims to be paid?
