Payd parental leave for parents if school will be closed because of Coronavirus

Petition Details

As parents of children whose schools may be closed due to the Coronavirus, we want the period which we need to take care of children to be fully paid, in line with lost earnings.

Additional Information

The period during which parents will have to take care of children is unpaid, because of this many families will fall into financial problems and debts.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

You would be welcome to start a new petition which gives more detail on who you think should pay for parental leave under these circumstances i.e. the Government or the employer. If you do start a new petition, please include your full name as we cannot accept petitions with just a first name.
