Google: Taking steps to protect employees

Google has stated that all its staff have to be fully vaccinated before returning to work and the British government has indicated that they are looking carefully at whether new employment laws are needed.  

To begin with, no one rational would like to work side by side with somebody that knowingly carries an infectious disease that can be passed to him or her and everybody else.

The policy is to be applied immediately to those working for Google in the United States of America, but there plan to implement the policy internationally in the coming months.

Another two companies - Facebook and Netflix - have also announced vaccination rules in the USA and there is the prospect that the policy will be applied soon in the United Kingdom.

In the United Kingdom, various companies like Bank of America, Bloomsbury and Pimlico Plumbers have made public similar policies. 

Regardless of employment laws, every company has company rules and it has been said that vaccination demands from employers could be considered reasonable as a legal duty to ensure workplaces are safe.
