If it's great to be English why write in American? Unless you are simply parroting some interweb conspiracy theorist who makes loads of money out of spouting dangerous rubbish.

You assume correctly.

Thank you.

To clarify: In my view there's always an argument for an employer choosing their own criteria for an employee. However, for those who don't agree with that I view some of the comments as a double standard.

When I was posting I was never directly referring to care-homes and either was WE when you replied to him...We were both referring to the wider job market. If I remember correctly you originally implied that restrictions would be a legally enforceable thing before then sticking to care-homes....that's moving the goalposts but whatever.

Whatever the law is for care-homes and places with the very ill personally I think being vaccinated or unvaccinated makes little difference and instead I would be far more comfortable with daily negative tests regardless.

However, I doubt this was previously done with flu for example and instead surely there should be a common sense health policy....people who are ill or have symptoms shouldn't be coming in and working with ill people who have weak immune systems...vaccinated or unvaccinated.

However, if it's the law to be vaccinated in carehomes then as people looking to enter the profession would already know that....then it's not a topic I have that much of an issue with....firing those who entered before that law....that's a different layer to deal with.

As I said earlier I was talking generally.

Obviously the state sector has to have consistency in its rules but personally I've never felt comfortable with the state telling an employer who they can and can't employ.

Let me try again

It is the law you have to be vaccinated to work in a Care Home

Therefore it doesn't actually matter if you have been employed for more than 2 years, your employer will have to remove you from your job and if there is no suitable alternative employment then they can dismiss you fairly. So no likelihood of success at a Tribunal and therefore no listing for a Tribunal

This process has already been completed by most Care Homes now.

I don't rely upon my title, I rely upon my training, education and experience. The title does to some extent reflect those.

Less than 2 years employment ? All part of the 'gig' economy, so promoted by the Tory Government. It totally stripped workers of rights.
