Closed The Right to Wear a Poppy at Work

Closed on

The recent case of a young Midlands shop worker being instructed by her employer to remove her Poppy from her uniform is absolutely deplorable.

If any worker wishes to show gratitude and support for our Armed Forces-past and present- that right should be enshrined in Employment Law provided there is no compromise to health and safety.

We, the undersigned request that this issue is brought before Her Majesty's Government.
