The implications of Covid-19 vaccine opt-outs in the workplace

There are a number of implications for employers whose employees opt-out of the vaccinations for COVID-19. Several legal considerations should be made by employers, including: the duties an employer owes; whether vaccination has been mandated either by the employer themselves or via another channel; the type of undertaking the employer carries out; what an employer can do when it comes to dealing with the non-vaccinated employee; and the knock-on effect on the employee’s individual rights.
