Presented by Brian Jackson (Special Counsel, Moray and Agnew)

What’s covered?

In the upcoming months, the rollout of the vaccine in Australia will commence and this will open up a range of complex issues for Australian employers.

Is it reasonable and lawful for an employer to require its employees to take the vaccine? What will be the issues around PPE? What will be the position around employees with allergies? What can an employer do if an employee refuses to take the vaccine? This is an evolving and challenging area of the law.
