Petition Details

Pay women on stat maternity who have not benefited from furlough equally with furlough payments direct from the government until March - including where they have been made redundant.

Additional Information

In feb this year ,I started my mat leave , like many women and have survived the last 8 months on Stat maternity and savings. My business sold in March , I have never meet my new employers . Then ready to return to work I was made redundant on 30th Oct. so many female tax payers whose babies were born close to the first lockdown haven’t benefited from furlough at all, we should be treated equally!Women on stat mat & made redundant should receive furlough payments directly
