Fund paid leave for those who live with extremely vulnerable persons

Petition Details

The Government should amend its policy for shielding the extremely vulnerable by funding paid leave for people who live with the extremely vulnerable, to help protect at risk.

Additional Information

I live in a household of 6 people, 5 of whom are extremely vulnerable but because I work in construction and I am not vulnerable I have to continue to work, risking bringing the virus home to everyone all because I am not eligible for paid leave under shielding guidance or the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme.
