Amend Universal Credit so that weekly paid workers aren't unfairly disadvantaged

Petition Details

Universal Credit may be stopped for weekly paid workers in a 5 week month, and they will have to reapply. This discriminates against weekly paid workers. Those paid the same annual wage over 12 months will not have months without Universal Credit payment or the stress of reapplying 4 times a year.

Additional Information

For further details of this aspect of Universal Credit see condition 8 for weekly paid workers, and condition 7 for fortnightly paid workers. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/universal-credit-different-earning-patterns-and-your-payments/universal-credit-different-earning-patterns-and-your-payments-payment-cycles#if-youre-paid-weekly
