Petition Action

No tax for for essential workers during COVID 19 outbreak.

Petition Details

Dont make essential workers pay tax on overtime due to COVID 19 outbreak.

Additional Information

Due to staff sickness, additional pressures and the need to keep the country going in this period of uncertainty many essential and frontline workers will have to work additional shifts putting themselves and their loved ones at risk. Say thank you by not taking a lump of their pay in taxes. This will allow some form of relief for the staff when the crisis relents.
