As the national rollout of COVID-19 vaccines takes place, it’s important to understand what this means for Queensland businesses in order to keep our community safe and healthy. Under the Work Health and Safety (WHS) laws, employers have a duty to eliminate, or if that is not reasonably practicable, minimise the risk of exposure to COVID-19 in the workplace.

Is your business considering mandatory vaccinations?
