Petition Action

Increase pay for Mechanics/Technicians

Petition Details

I want Mechanics/Technicians to have a pay increase it should be the same pay as other skilled trades.

It takes alot of knowledge and skill to be a Mechanic/Technician especially how vehicles are getting more technical. I find it a very under valued trade.

Additional Information

Having a pay increase would massively help with morale and it would help with working efficiencies within the motor trade. We save alot of lives each year finding dangerous faults on customers Vehicles. We keep the country moving.

It would also give young adults more of an incentive to apply for an apprenticeship as a Mechanic/Technician when they leave school.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Provided pay is in line with minimum wage legislation, decisions about pay are a matter for individual employers, not the Government or Parliament. As a result it is not possible for the Government or Parliament to take the action you have requested.
