Rejected petition Reward NHS employee 1 additional day off due keeping NHS Running during COVID
I want the covid to give all NHS staff 1 extra day off annual leave. Due to Covid 19 and other covid variants, NHS staff have worked hard to keep the services running, despite the staff shortages lack of funding. The staff had ensured that patients get the best care despite these shortages.
More details
I speak on behalf of all NHS staff. The service providers deserve to be rewarded. For all their hard work commitment and sacrifices they have made. Such as working extra time leaving their families so services do not fail, sacrificing annual leave, so that service continues to run. Without the commitment of our NHS employees the NHS would suffer. As a thank you and show of appreciation the Government should grant 1 day extra leave either this year or next financial year.

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
The NHS is responsible for decisions about annual leave, not the UK Government or Parliament. As a result it is not possible for the Government or Parliament to take the action you have requested.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
