Give all Key Workers Two Weeks Extra Holiday this year!
Key workers have worked so hard during this pandemic and they deserve extra holiday to take this year. It’s incredibly stressful and they are all working obscene hours to help. Two weeks would be extra time for some much needed rest.
It’s a small appreciation and a simple Thank You for every Key worker who has to risk their lives every day to work hard through the COVID-19 pandemic, they can’t isolate and stay at home and they deserve something back. Two weeks would be additional time for them to spend with their families, to rest and enjoy after all of the long days, long hours at work and devoting themselves and changing their lives to help people, save lives and to keep order.
