Petition Action

Full sick pay for “key” workers.

Petition Details

I like millions of others that are classed as key workers do not get paid sick pay. I like millions of others have worked every single day feeding the country throughout this pandemic, putting myself at higher risk of infection and in turn risked my life and livelihood to keep the country running.

Additional Information

I feel as though we have been abandon by our government. I am petitioning for full sick pay, or at least 80% to match the furlough scheme. As there are many situations where I may need to self isolate and I would only get SSP. I cannot survive on £95 a week.
