Raise the amount if statutory sick pay you receive if you are self isolating
The government need to raise the sick pay from 94 pound a week. As people cannot survive on this amount of money. If we only get the basic sick pay. No one will be able to survive on that
This needs to be done as people cannot survive on SSP if people who just get sick pay. People will be forced to go to work if they know that with only sick pay they will not be able to pay their bills or even buy food. The government needs to look after the people who live in the uk and give us some stability raise the sick pay to match the amount in the EU. In England we have the lowest rate of sick pay this needs to change,
