Close and offer support to non-essential construction and manufacturing

Petition Details

Close non-essential construction and manufacturing that takes place indoors. Offer financial support to businesses and employees.

Additional Information

Construction and manufacturing workers are being used as cannon fodder. Their lives matter too and so do their families. The working class people matter.

Many of these businesses are not only non-essential, but not Covid secure. If it isn’t safe for offices, shops and all other non-essential businesses to open, it also isn’t safe for indoor construction and manufacturing.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about the risks of keeping certain businesses open, but we're not sure exactly what activities you want to be banned. Your petition refers to non-essential construction and manufacturing that takes place indoors, but it's not clear what would be covered by this.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:
