Introduce same pension age for ambulance workers as for Police and Firefighters

Open for signatures 69 signatures

What the petition asks

Lower the pension age for ambulance service workers under the NHS scheme to 60, in line with the Police and Firefighters. Ambulance staff have the stresses and face the same dangers as police and fire fighters. They do not have the privilege of lower pension ages despite being front line workers.
We believe it is the duty of Parliamentarians to bring ALL emergency service staff in line regarding pensions and pay more widely. We rely on all of these people in times of accident, major incidents and all manner of health and urgent needs.
