Revenue provides details of changes to rates of Employment Wage Subsidy Scheme

The Revenue Commissioners have outlined changes to the payment rates.

Revenue has provided an update on the revised Employment Wage Subsidy Scheme (EWSS) and how it will align more with rates paid under the Pandemic Unemployment Payment (PUP) scheme.

The revision of the scheme means some increased payments. For example, if an employer is currently availing of the EWSS for an employee on a weekly wage of €350, the subsidy has increased from €203 per week to €300 per week.
