"Idiots, though we are out of the eu now, so bang go our human rights" Not at all because you can either choose to have the vaccine work somewhere else. | |||

"Idiots, though we are out of the eu now, so bang go our human rights" I think that hasn't changed yet and isn't likely to, immediately. It's certainly a risk. It's one of those tricky issues, how far we let employers intrude into our lives and on what grounds. Letting the market decide only goes so far, of course. | |||

"some jobs already specify the need for different vaccines before they will start you in a job, for example hepatitis the only difference here is people were aware before taking the job in the past but not contracts are being changed after the fact... for that reason it might be seen as constructive dismissal if they try get rid and they might need to wait for natural attrition of non vaxxers then its in all new staff contracts but it would all be down to an employment tribunal (or higher court if appealed) covid seems to have created conspiracies out of. so many things that already happened in every day life that people just took no interest in before and now a headline tells them their human rights are being eroded " although in the specific plumber example its contractors so the contract just isnt renewed | |||

" UK Plumbing firm to rewrite all of its workers' contracts to require them to be vaccinated against covid https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55654229 KJ " I can see why people would say it is unfair .. I don't agree though I think its just common sense. This pandemic has been a game-changer if only people would realise. There will be no ' old normal about anything when this is over. All it means is that people now have the freedom of choice to decide what they want to do for a living. If you want to be a plumber and work for this firm you take the vaccine.. otherwise, you don't work for them. I think the employer is showing a duty of care to workers and to customers here. It's going to be the same in lots of other things I think soon .. particularly in jobs where people have to work with the general public and again I can't disagree with that .. public safety is more important I think now than anything else. People can refuse to be vaccinated but they will have to learn to live with the consequences of that decision where jobs and even things like socialising in pubs etc is concerned .. this is the future .. garlic bread? not so much anymore I'm sad to say! | |||

" Yep I have to agree the choice is still there as long as those who medically can't be vaccinated aren't discrimiated against and this just applies to the those who won't then there isn't a problem. Look for work from an employer who doesn't require you to be vaccinated. Those of us who have worked abroad in certain countries have already had to do this for years now. KJ | |||

Either way still rocky ground legally for those that choose not to have it for various reasons and lose their jobs. | |||

"Isn't this the despicable operator that's abused just about everyone possible, with staff treaged badly for years? It's such a pity it's in business. Is it a roundabout way of getting rid of staff, at lower costs? It's unfair whilst vaccines are not available for all and presumably the business is not going to pay staff any more, for requiring them to have a broader level of assets. " Yes. I suppose I'm imagining a world where everyone has had an opportunity to be vaccinated. Could an employer require this? I don't know (in healthcare more likely yes). Could the law change to allow an employer to do this? Yes. | |||

"The Government has already debated this in Parliament due to there being a petition of over 300,000 signatures signed. In response to people asking would they face any restrictions anywhere for not having the vaccine Parliament responded. The Government’s reply states categorically: “There are currently no plans to place restrictions on those who refuse to have any potential Covid-19 vaccine.” And that was it. Thus why in the article the law expert says the employer is on sticky ground. " The government placing restrictions and employers requiring things are two different matters. Also note the wording.

"Maybe the real tragedy is that no matter how much money you have- and that generally means no matter how much tax you have paid to support the rest of us/you- you cannot jump the queue. So how does that fit in with Darwin? Are we determined to undermine human development?" Ummmm Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection has bugger all to do with the ability to pay for vaccines or in fact vaccines at all. It simply explains speciation by describing how organisms with the best adaptations for their specific niche will be "fitter", which in biology means will have more offspring. That means they pass on their genes (and therefore their suitable adaptations) to the next generation. As habitats change over time, the adaptations that are most beneficial will also change (this is all gradual, usually) and so speciation occurs slowly. Etc. He wrote a jolly interesting book about it in 1859 - excellent light bedtime reading | |||

"I'm speculating. That's all. Precedent for vaccine mandates exists, although the tradition is weaker in the UK. Employment stipulation is different from government mandate." Quite. My Middle Eastern students are extremely surprised to know we don't have mandatory vaccines here. They have to have up to date vaccines and a certificate to prove it to access education at home and to gain a scholarship to study here. For example. Most of my Chinese students have had their vaccine. One of my former Russian students who's now doing PhD had the Sputnik one while home for Christmas (which suggests there's decent evidence for it because he's a very intelligent guy and medicinal chemistry is his thing). | |||

Only realise when people point it out so thanks for that. But yes you can look at BBC internet and listen to BBC radio in your car FOC but you do need a licence to watch iPlayer. It used to be only if you watch live but that has been changed to 'catch up' as well. Just so no one gets on the wrong side of the law. But you can cancel your licence if you wish. You are not allowed a TV etc.. anymore but you can do it. Hope that clarifies things. I didn't go into detail as was talking about the post not the Beeb! lol | |||

As to whether it's grounds to cancel thier Licence its upto the individual. They simply have to unplug their reciever, stop watching live broadcasts online and inform the TV Licencing agency they no longer require a licence | |||

" UK Plumbing firm to rewrite all of its workers' contracts to require them to be vaccinated against covid https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55654229 KJ " I read the article to my gf. Her comment... "what a brilliant boss, wouldn't it be great if all bosses showed as much care for their staff?" and so on. Then of course the lawyers will be making out its a bad thing. More power to him, his employees and his customers. | |||

"Interesting watching the debate on vine. Not my usual watch but just seen the NHS worker (or claiming to be NHS anyway). You'd have thought that somebody who works in health care would be better informed about the science.. And if not better informed... At least not come out with completely factually incorrect garbage on national daytime TV. People are entitled to be against it but be against it for the right reasons not because you've fb_itis.

"It would be more helpful in the prevention of the spread of disease if employers changed contracts to ensure employees all recieved adequate sickpay. Then when people were actually sick (and infectious) they could stay away from work rather than feeling compelled to go in as they are penalised with zero sick pay or disciplinary action if they stay off. I have friends who work for contractors and they get no sick pay if they're off. Adequate sickpay should be a right, not a luxury." A few people where I work haven't downloaded the covid app in case it tells them to self isolate, we don't get sick pay, only statutory. It's no wonder things spread!  | |||

"Madness really when you consider having the jab changes nothing as all the questions about wether you can still get it..transmit it etc are unanswered...it's still at this stage an experimental vaccine due to it been rushed out without all stages of the trials completed...in essence taking it now you are actually a part of the trial...." Any idea why the vaccines been rushed?
I think you need to look at the reasons why and how, then look at the trial process, approvals and licensing before make daft comments.

Those crying human rights don't seem to get that fact do they!
Can you quote human rights? Or another epic fail "Once had a idiot of a policeman say I was infringing someone's human rights, I suggested he read what and who the rights apply to. One complaint to the constabulary and official apology the policeman was put on warning for conduct for 9 months and had to undertake remedial training. Don't confuse employment law with human rights. | |||

I don't think you put just anything you like in a contract, there will still be employment laws to consider, otherwise "rights to one night per week with your wife" will become a popular one with employers on FAB."Hmm. I'll not settle for anything less than them having her for 5! | |||

"Ability for this to be (currently) legally enforceable aside - I think this sets a dangerous precedent. Ppl saying “ah but if you visit country X you have to have vaccine Y” (eg yellow fever) are missing the point that these are, in most cases, decades old proven vaccines with substantial research data on short and long term side effects. Ppl do/should retain an absolute right over what happens to their own body. The three approved Covid vaccines currently have no evidence that it stops infection or transmission. They do appear to reduce severity of illness in those that contract Covid. The studies for each do appear to be thorough and were quicker than normal due to various factors including level of funding, concurrent studies and access to a volume of participants (with a potential higher prevalence of the virus). And yet, naturally, there has not been a fourth stage trial and, again naturally, we have no way of knowing about potential long term side effects. In addition some ingredients in the vaccine may mean some ppl or groups may not want or be able to receive the vaccine either on medical or moral grounds. Before anyone shouts I am not an anti-vaxxer and am up-to-date with my jabs AND have travelled widely including multiple African countries. However, I am cautious about this (although will be pretty much at back of priority list anyway). FWIW I am also cautious about the motives of big pharma and that the Govt has removed all liability from them indemnifying them against future lawsuits. That does not build trust. Because of THAT, and not any weird jingoistic rubbish, I would be far happier having the Oxford AZ vaccine because they are doing it at cost (ie they will not make any profit at all) removing possible conflict of interest and profit driven motivation. Back on topic - I do not think employers (except healthcare for obvious high risk transmission risk reasons) should be able to mandate having the vaccine as this should be an individual choice - least of all a plumber!"
