I listened to a bit about this on the radio before I got up this morning. One care home group already put in place policies that they wouldn't hire staff who hadn't / wouldn't get vaccinated and won't take on new residents who won't accept a vaccination. They say that because they have a statutory duty to keep residents safe (I forget the exact terminology) that is sufficient to not fall foul of anti-discrimination clauses in employment law.
I completely understand where they were coming from, and where HMG is coming from. I'm just not comfortable with it. I know there is precedent with other vaccinations for some roles in the NHS but is covid truly an equivalent disease that warrants this level of mandated vaccination?Last edited by ladymuck; 24 March 2021, 13:08.Comment
