This should prove interesting
What would your reaction be if it was you being informed of this requirement by your employer?"Publisher Bloomsbury says vaccines will be compulsory for UK staff returning to its offices when they reopen."
"The Harry Potter publisher's decision comes as many firms weigh up the necessity of workforce vaccinations.
The government has announced that care home workers in England will be required to have a vaccination or risk losing their jobs."

I well remember having to have a vaccination certificate regarding yellow fever to enter some countries. As it is back when having moved to project management and schlepping around the world having to have a whole load of stuff shoved into me - it was part of the job. You want the pay and rations - then march to the drum.

The media like to bury any mitigating information in the body of the story. It tends to undermine the headline if people see it before the've bought the newspaper, or clicked on the link. I would hate to get all worked up for nothing.

Yes, I think that will happen too, Pixie.
They were saying on the news that if some care staff still refuse the vaccine though, they will either end up walking out, or getting the sack, which will create another problem - staff shortages.
Also will they be entitled to any pay-off if they have to leave, and if so, who coughs up - the employer, or the government?
