Review N.H.S. And all related staff pay structure, including Care worker’s

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

The Coronavirus (Covid 19) has highlighted the plight of the N.H.S. workers and the Care workers as being very poorly paid. They have been left with a battle to survive without the correct equipment in the hospitals and Care Homes.
Parliament is the only body that can achieve this so please review.
When this pandemic is over it is imperative that the government meet with representatives of the nurses, ancillary staff, Ambulance Service, all other staff related to the N.H.S. and the Care Workers to achieve a vastly improved wage structure.
The nation has shown their total respect for the N.H.S. related staff with their weekly Thursday appreciation session at 8.00 pm.
Let us all show our support by signing this petition.
