Unions representing millions of workers, including teachers and doctors, are urging UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer to increase Statutory Sick Pay, currently at £116.75 per week. They argue the low rate forces workers to delay medical treatment and struggle financially, calling for a £60-per-week increase.
Labour's Employment Bill aims to address some concerns by ensuring sick pay starts from day one of illness. However, union leaders emphasize the need for a timeline on increasing the pay rate to ensure worker safety and financial security.
