Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand you're concerned about lone workers, but we're not sure exactly what changes you'd like to be made. If you want the Government to prohibit workers from being on duty on their own in certain workplaces, such as retail, we could accept a petition requesting this.
