Citation’s Head of Employment Law, Gillian McAteer, is hosting an important webinar for Care Providers outlining the latest updates to the mandatory vaccination guidance for the care sector, the options available to employers if staff haven’t been vaccinated, and a look ahead to the new rules coming into force for the wider social care sector.
This legislation has presented some significant challenges to employers ever since it was announced. Now, as we move into the next stage of this process – and with the self-exemption status period running until 24 December – it’s important to know what your next steps are.
So, join our free, 60-minute webinar as Gill provides expert guidance on some of the key considerations for care business owners, including:
Updated guidance on the COVID vaccination exemption scheme
What is considered acceptable proof of temporary and permanent exemption status?
What process should you follow if an employee refuses to be vaccinated without being exempt?
How to handle grievances raised concerning mandatory vaccination
CQC’s approach to enforcement
The proposals for the new rules in wider social care
What you should do now to prepare for the new rules.
