Closed Amend employment law to require additional pay for Sunday working

Closed on

I’d like the UK Government to mandate that anyone who works on a Sunday gets a pay increase of time and a half, since Sunday is an unsociable day to work.

Many people would rather be elsewhere than working on a Sunday, as I think there’s no incentive/benefit to working on a Sunday. I think there needs to be action for this to change to make employees want to work on a Sunday.
