Pay vulnerable and pregnant workers 80% wage in 12 week isolation - not SSP

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the government to pay the same 80% that is being paid to workers laid off or furloughed to workers that are isolating due to age, vulnerability or pregnancy. We are not chosing to stay off work, we are following guidelines and trying to protect our health.
