To Recognise all care workers as equal as they are working on the frontline to!
Care workers have been categorised as unskilled. Give them the recognition as any other frontline worker currently in the Uk
Care workers have been categorised as unskilled. They are also there on the frontline giving continued care to our most vulnerable. Most of the care workers may have to live in for a number of weeks if there is lockdown. There is no government support for them!
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We understand that you want the Government to recognise the role of care workers, but it's not clear exactly what you want the Government to do to achieve this.
We have published petitions calling on key workers to be given hazard pay, bonuses, or tax relief, as a result of the coronavirus outbreak, which you might like to sign:
petition.parliament.uk/petitions/306845
petition.parliament.uk/petitions/307619
petition.parliament.uk/petitions/307215
We have also published petitions calling on the Government to ensure that employees and self-employed people are paid if they have to self-isolate, which you also might like to sign:
petition.parliament.uk/petitions/301652
petition.parliament.uk/petitions/303345
If you want the Government to take some other action, you could start a new petition stating in more detail what you want the Government to do.
