Require employers give employees 3 months sick pay when cancer is diagnosed
I want the government to have a policy in place to help all cancer patients financially. I feel that for the first couple of months, cancer patients need to focus on their diagnosis. Having 3 months of full sick pay in place could allow them to focus on what they are dealing with.
Government to pay Statutory Sick Pay for Small Businesses
We want the Government to cover Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) for small businesses.
Require employers to pay unused annual leave or carry it over to the next year
Every year 1000s of workers do not claim their full annual leave entitlement for many reasons. It should be law for employers to pay all unused holiday at the end of each year or carry it over. Employers budget for it and should not benefit from those who are happy to work rather than have time off.
Require employers to implement medical advice on workplace adjustments
Employers do not have to implement GP and Occupational Health advice on workplace adjustments if it is not "reasonable", leaving disabled and unwell workers unprotected. We call for a law requiring employers to follow medical recommendations unless they can prove it’s objectively impossible.
Require employers to give employees a paid day of leave on their birthday
I believe that no one should ever have to work on their birthday. I ask the government to consider requiring employers to give employees a paid day of leave on their birthday.
