Petition Increase additional working hours for healthcare visa workers to 37.5hr

During the coronavirus pandemic, the skilled worker visa permitted healthcare workers and paramedics to work unlimited additional hours asides the contracted hours. This was recently changed to 20hr as pre-covid rule states. I would like this to be reconsidered to 37.5H instead.

More details

Immigrants healthcare workers and paramedics have worked relentlessly and efficiently during these COVID times and although covid rules have been relaxed, covid is much in the hospitals and everywhere. We get called to work more hours because staff are down with COVID and retirement.We still wear masks in hospitals.The extra hours has favoured us to make ends meet especially with the inflation.It's only fair that the hours be made 37.5hours,give to those you take from.
