Petition Action

Reward all "Key Workers" continuing to work throughout the Covid19 outbreak.

Petition Details

The government should reward all "Key Workers" risking their own health throughout the Covid19 outbreak either monetarily or by some other means, as a "Thank You" for delivering medical, food, law enforcement, and many other services the nation relies on.

Additional Information

It seems only right with the correlation between risk and wages within the wage market; along with many businesses not being able to financially reward (wage bonuses) dedicated staff who are keeping things such as the food supply, medical care, social care, law enforcement and many others going within the country at such a chaotic time.

None of us regard our health any less than members of the public currently in lockdown, and with the increased risk surely we should see some benefit.
