They haven't been included in the co-funded payroll scheme.
That is still in place, as is the requirement to wear a mask inside public spaces.
But the Chamber of Commerce says many of them have been affected 'dramatically' by those restrictions.
Local work from home recommendations are affecting retail & close contact service businesses, and we will keep pushing for them to be eligible to support through our discussions with @GovJersey on the co-funded payroll scheme. https://t.co/2aiGzfPb7K

The scheme was reintroduced just before Christmas following the Omicron outbreak.
Bars, restaurants, coffee and sandwich shops, taxis, cinemas and the arts, and sole traders were all added to it earlier this month.
The survey can be filled out here.
Eligible businesses can now claim for December 2021.
The government says the scheme will be reviewed next week.
