Vaccinating workers in construction should be a priority

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like all construction workers to be vaccinated as a priority as well .They are travelling to sites out of there own area,s and having to mix with other trades on a daily basis.
Government want all people who can’t work from home to go to work so they can keep the economy going which construction is a big part in the economy yet we are not a priority for the vaccine. We are risking our lives on a daily basis going to sites where there are lots of workers who have travelled from different parts of the uk to get to them sites.
