Petition Make NHS bonus covid payments of £500 exempt from UC calculation

Stop Universal credit claimants who work for NHS being deducted benefits due the £500 covid bonuses. We are gaining nothing from the bonus other than hardship in the month following.

More details

As like every other member of the NHS, benefit claimants have worked hard every right to keep the bonus that is already taxed without it effecting benefits. It is not a regular bonus and should not be counted as part of our income.
