The Future World of Work
Global Guide on Employment Implications of the COVID-19 Vaccination

The rollout of COVID-19 vaccines around the world has inevitably prompted a number of questions from businesses, such as whether they can require their staff to have the vaccine as part of their making the workplace as safe as practicable, and what their options are if an employee refuses to have it.

In this guide, we set out the key questions that employers are likely to have about the COVID-19 vaccine and the implications for the workplace. Lawyers from our Labour & Employment team have provided outline answers to these questions for their particular jurisdiction. As will be seen from the responses, approaches
still differ from country to country – businesses should, therefore, continue to keep abreast of developments in the different countries that may affect them – a one-size-fits-all approach across your international network is definitely not recommended.

Please note that this guide is intended as a high-level overview only and should not be regarded as a substitute for legal advice. It sets out the position as at 23 September 2021.  We recommend that you always check the latest position with your local labour & employment lawyer. Where “P/O Maybe” responses are given,
they may be dependent on the facts and specific advice should always be taken.
