This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about certain employment arrangements, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to ban the use of umbrella companies in the construction industry, if that's what you want to happen.

Decisions about organising a trade union are a matter for workers, not the Government or Parliament.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
