MERA to increase as Island enters another lockdown

Payment rises to £230 per week

The Manx Earnings Replacement Scheme will re-open this week.  

MERA provides support to employed earners who are made redundant, laid off or put on nil pay by their employer.  

It also helps self-employed people who are prevented from carrying out their work due to the conditions imposed because of lockdown.  

This time it’s being increased from £200 a week to £230 and will be available until March 24th.

Claims can be made from 9am on Thursday by clicking here.
