My second question is on sick pay provision. It has been outlined that 90% of the workers we are talking about do not have sick pay provision. Specifically in the context of language issues and difficulties with accessing services, have workers been able to access the pandemic unemployment payment or has there been a large lag time during which workers have been left without any payment owing to Covid-19 sickness?
