Construction Sector Webinar: Vaccinations and testing | HR and Employment Law considerations.

NAVIGATING BUSINESS CHANGE IN 2021 | COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND GUIDANCE FOR EMPLOYERS

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a massive impact on businesses across the UK and for many, the news of a vaccine was the long-awaited light at the end of the tunnel.

On top of this, the more recent announcement of a government drive to increase workplace testing will focus on the sectors that have remained open during the pandemic and whose people cannot work from home, such as the construction and trades sector.

So, it is no surprise that our advice line has received hundreds of calls with questions about what this all means for employers.

To help business owners in the construction sector prepare for the tricky HR issues that may arise when the time comes, led by our HR and Employment Law experts, we’ll be answering some of our most frequently asked questions, including:

• What are my responsibilities/obligations as an employer?
• Can I make COVID testing mandatory?
• Can employees refuse the vaccine and what are my rights as an employer if they do?
• How do I put safety first whilst avoiding tribunals?
• Do I need a vaccination policy?

Citation is trusted by thousands of construction clients and works alongside tens of trade associations – Build UK, The Scaffolding Association, Confederation of Roofing Contractors and the Glass & Glazing Federation to name just a few – so we’ll also be answering your business-specific queries.

Please feel free to come along armed with any questions you may have and join us from 3:15pm for a quick meet and greet with our hosts before the webinar begins at 3:30pm.
