More than one in five employers intend to insist employees are vaccinated against COVID-19 as a condition of employment, a YouGov survey commissioned by Acas has found
More than half the employers said they would not implement a ‘no jab no job’ policy, one in five said they would, one in five didn’t know and about five per cent preferred not to say. Acas advised employers to listen to employee’s concerns and support them to get the vaccine rather than make it a requirement, for example, by agreeing to give paid time off for vaccine appointments and to pay the usual rate of pay if staff become ill from vaccine side-effects.
