In partnership with the Australian Chamber of Commerce, we are providing a free guide for employers to help navigate the complexities and legalities of COVID-19 vaccination policies in the workplace.

Providing clarity for employers across all sectors during the COVID-19 vaccine rollout, the COVID-19 Vaccinations and the Workplace Employer Guide will help businesses understand their obligations and limitations in an ever-changing landscape.

While this guide will be regularly updated as the situation evolves, this first edition covers vital topics, including: 

  • Communicating with employees 
  • Assisting employees to get vaccinated 
  • Considerations for workplace Health and Safety Laws  
  • Vaccines and privacy law 
  • Ongoing workplace health and safety 

The Victorian Chamber recently asked more than 1,500 Victorian businesses of varying sizes and across all sectors if COVID-19 vaccinations should be mandatory in the workplace. Click here to view our article explaining the results of our survey.
