Matt Hancock,

In March, you admitted you wouldn't be able to survive on Statutory Sick Pay of £95 per week. But now you're expecting workers who are sick with the coronavirus to survive on even less than that. £13 per day isn't enough to cover rent, food, and bills. It definitely isn't enough to look after children and dependent family members.

Workers who self-isolate due to testing positive for COVID are protecting our community. They are doing the nation a service. So it's only right that we ensure they are compensated properly and can continue to afford the essentials during the period of self-isolation.

Please sign this petition asking Matt Hancock to provide full pay to self-isolating workers.
