COVID-19 is not only a global health pandemic; it has brought whole sectors of the economy grinding to a halt. To provide timely information on the emerging impacts of the current crisis, we collected novel survey data from a representative sample of UK workers on 25th March 2020, finding large and significant differences in the impact of the economic disruption across workers of different income levels, ages, and those employed under different work arrangements. We seek funding for five follow-up waves of survey data to enable the impacts of the crisis on different workers to be tracked and to assess the effectiveness of different policies aimed to smooth the effect of containment measures on living standards. This research is of first order policy importance; the fiscal response has been unprecedented, but concern remains that assistance is not getting to the most in need. Further, the impact that we have already identified on young workers will call for a targeted set of future policy proposals to ensure that any impact on them is not permanent. The analysis possible with the data we collect will enable us quickly to understand whether interventions are well targeted and inform the design of labour market policy.

COVID-19 不仅是一种全球性健康流行病，而且也是一种流行病。它使整个经济部门陷入停滞。为了及时提供有关当前危机新出现的影响的信息，我们于 2020 年 3 月 25 日从英国工人的代表性样本中收集了新的调查数据，发现不同收入水平、年龄和不同工作安排的工人之间经济混乱的影响存在巨大且显着的差异。我们为五波后续调查数据寻求资金，以便追踪危机对不同工人的影响，并评估旨在平滑遏制措施对生活水平影响的不同政策的有效性。这项研究具有首要的政策重要性；财政应对措施是史无前例的，但人们仍然担心援助没有送达最需要的人手中。此外，我们已经确定了对年轻工人的影响，因此需要制定一套有针对性的未来政策建议，以确保对他们的影响不是永久性的。对我们收集的数据进行分析将使我们能够快速了解​​干预措施是否有针对性，并为劳动力市场政策的设计提供信息。
