Coronavirus: Workers to pay tax on tests by their employer

Write a letter to the chancellor of the Exchequer and or the Prime minister.

Why is this important?

Hi Folks, hope your safe and well.
My daughter is a carer in an old folks home in Edinburgh. Prior to the pandemic she was classed a low paid low skilled worker now she finds she's a high skilled low paid worker.
The care home manager is extremely competent in all staff have temperature checks on arrival, showers and regular testing at a covid station, there has been no cases of any staff or residents being infected.
Now we are being told that testing employees is taxable because it's a PERK so you get taxed on every test that the employer pays for.
The Health & Safety at Work Act states that all employers have a duty of care to all employees , this means in my eyes this is part of your working conditions and must be paid for by there employers or the government.
