Closed petition Reduce tax on fuel for domiciliary and community care nurses
The Government should reduce tax on fuel for domiciliary and community care workers. They provide a valued service within communities to those in need. weekly to fulfil their roles.
More details
Fuel price hikes have placed a lot of carers into further hardship and many of them are leaving the profession due to not being able to afford to put petrol in their cars.
It is essential that carers within domiciliary care worker profession drive. Since the price hike carers are unable to afford to put fuel into their cars. Since April where I work, we have lost around 20% of staff where they have gone into other professions where they are not required to use their own vehicle. Carers should be given discounted fuel to subsidise costs and keep people in the profession as they provide an essential role within communities.
