Self employed people should be entitled to SSP and Paternal Leave

Petition Details

Self employed people are hard working and pay their own taxes and NI but they are not entitled to any sick pay or paternity leave.
I don't think this is fair and it seems to be discriminatory as most of the times they work harder that employed people.

Additional Information

Parliament to take in to consideration how hard self employed people work and change the system so they get SSP and paternity leave as any other workers. This should be basic rights for anyone contributing to the tax system.
