Remove employer National Insurance for all workers aged 16–25

Open for signatures 26 signatures

What the petition asks

Removing employer National Insurance (NI) for all young workers could make it cheaper for businesses to hire them, potentially increasing entry-level jobs and apprenticeships.
This could help boost the economy and get the young back to work or apprenticeships to allow the young to get working again and not leave a generation behind.
