Rejected petition The working hours should be from 10 AM to 5 PM

We believe that allowing people to spend more time with their families and distancing themselves from intense working hours will lead to a reduction in stress-related illnesses by ensuring that their bodies have enough rest.

More details

We believe that the increase in illnesses is due to people working like slaves under intense stress without allowing their bodies and minds sufficient rest.

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Decisions about working hours are a matter for individual organisations and businesses, not the Government or Parliament.

If you were interested in reducing the maximum number of legal working hours, we could accept a petition on this matter.

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