Petition Action

Acknowledge Probation Officers, Police Officers, Prison Staff and Keyworkers.

Petition Details

I have been in the Probation service for 2 and half years and I have noticed that Probation Officers, Police Officers, Prison Staff and Keyworkers should have the opportunity to be noticed and acknowledged for our hard work that we put in to the community.

Additional Information

I have worked in the Probation service for 2 and a half years, a new probation officer. All I see on the news is a lot of public services being praised for the jobs that they do and probation be slated. Probation officers work just as hard as all the other public services and are not recognised for the hard work that we put in to keep the world safe.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We understand that you want the Government to acknowledge Probation Officers, Police Officers, Prison Staff and other keyworkers, but it's not clear what you want the Government to do to achieve this.

You could start a new petition calling on the Government to fund increased pay, or other benefits, for these workers, if that is something you would like to see.

We have also published petitions calling on the Government to take various actions to financially reward keyworkers as a result of the coronavirus outbreak, which you might like to sign:

Identify and reward all key workers due to Covid-19: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/308903

Consider how to compensate key workers for their efforts during Covid-19 crisis: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/308172

Make hazard pay mandatory for key workers in the midst of COVID 19: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/307619

Give all key workers a 100% tax and Nat. Ins. holiday through COVID-19 crisis: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/306845
