There's no issue with a company making requirements for a job description. However without legislation that comes with obligation too, the company accepts liability for anything that may go wrong there whether the employee chose to be vaccinated or not. Without legislation it's unlikely any insurance company will cover that risk, certainly not for that many employees.
A more sensible approach is to encourage employees to choose the vaccination even if that means incentives. To terminate an existing employee for not being vaccinated particularly if there are medical grounds falls squarely in discrimination.
