Xeptu, you keep saying Companies shouldn’t be able to mandate without legislation. There is plenty of legislation that allows Companies to enforce mandates such as this, how else do you think some Companies get away with mandating Hepititis vaccines before being able to work in their surgical hospitals, or pre-schools that mandate a full vaccine record of teachers and students. You will find different companies policy documents full of mandates that are not backed by specific legislation but can be backed up by more broad legislation such as Health and Safety regulations. Qantas and other companies will have very good legal basis for this, every Lawyer I have spoken too about this is in general agreement that Companies can mandate vaccinations should they choose. Obviously Qantas feels there is a commercial advantage to going down this path and the majority of staff support that position.
