What the petition asks
Due to COVID-19 outbreak, people are losing their jobs either temporarily or permanently because of the impact on the economy, but they need support. The government needs to intervene urgently.
Many people are in danger of be laid off or being made redundant. Despite the help that the Government is offering to companies, some are still choosing to lay people off. It is time for the Government to act and protect the people.
