Petition Action

Commission to be included for people who have been furloughed.

Petition Details

To allow companies to include commission as well as salary when working out what to claim for, for furloughed staff members.

Additional Information

For many industries, commission makes up to roughly 70%/80% of their wages such as sales. Many people in this type of job may only be on as little as £8000 salary. My self am only on 12K salary. With the furloughed system I'd get as little as £800 per month gross. Where as normally we would earn between £1500 and £4000 per month (gross) and more even. Allow us to have our commission taken into account so that we can get a fair pay or at least a chance to pay our bills each month.
