Close non essential Construction sites during Covid-19

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Close construction sites , you want family’s to isolate but what is the point in them isolating when there partner/family member is coming home from a day of mixing with many others in a small work space , you cannot do social distancing on many sites and workers have to share/touch same equipment.
You have high risk family’s at home that are following your guidelines to self isolate and stay inside yet you’re sending there partners out to work on crammed public transport then small work spaces. It is contradicting.
You’re willing to risk the lives of family’s .
