Burnley to continue to pay all casual staff during coronavirus pandemic

The Premier League has been shut down until at least April 30th, and some Burnley FC staff are currently working from home, in accordance with Government guidelines.

All football clubs face a continuing number of match postponements, but the club are to continue paying all casual non-matchday and matchday workers during this period of uncertainty.

This also applies to casual workers employed by Burnley FC in the Community.

Chief Executive Officer Neil Hart said: “This is a difficult time for everyone and we wanted to reassure those who work in casual roles on either a matchday or non-matchday for Burnley Football Club that they will not be financially disadvantaged by the current situation.

“Our over-riding priority is to look after the well-being of our staff and their families during this testing time and we hope this will provide some comfort and reassurance.”
