Closed petition Make it an offence for retailers to ask customers to remove their face covering

Closed on

Some supermarkets are putting their staff and customers at unnecessary risk of catching and spreading the coronavirus by requiring them to ask customers who buy age-restricted products to lower their face covering. This is unjustifiable and as well as the health risk leads to staff facing more abuse

It is unfair to put staff health at risk. Shop workers are essential and their health matters.
