Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament

Rejected petition Increase public sector pay and national minimum wage due to COVID efforts.

I want the Government to increase pay for public sector workers who missed out on the 21st July Announcement and Increase the national minimum wage by 2-3% at least.

More details

The Government missed many key public sector workers in their pay announcement and those key workers in the private sector weren’t acknowledged either. I want the Government to increase those public sector workers Wages (eg Nurses) and increase the minimum wage so workers in the private sector, for example retail, care and haulage are captured too.
