Increase public sector pay and national minimum wage due to COVID efforts.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the Government to increase pay for public sector workers who missed out on the 21st July Announcement and Increase the national minimum wage by 2-3% at least.

The Government missed many key public sector workers in their pay announcement and those key workers in the private sector weren’t acknowledged either. I want the Government to increase those public sector workers Wages (eg Nurses) and increase the minimum wage so workers in the private sector, for example retail, care and haulage are captured too.

Why it was rejected

Ensure that the national minimum wage is a living wage.
Pay rise for NHS and care staff
