- Forty percent of companies surveyed in a new report require all employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
- Employees will be encouraged but not required to get a jab by 32% of companies.
- Mental health concerns and burn-out have risen up the agenda since the onset of the pandemic.
Almost nine in every 10 companies will require or encourage their employees to get a COVID-19 vaccination or face consequences, according to a new report.
All employees are required to be vaccinated by 40% of companies surveyed in a report
from Arizona State University (ASU), the World Economic Forum and the Rockefeller Foundation. Employees will be encouraged but not required by 32% and 16% will require some, but not all, employees to have the jab.
While vaccination programmes are well underway in many of the world’s wealthiest countries, other regions lag far behind, with India and Latin America in the crosshairs. The ASU report assessed responses from 24 industry sectors and 1,339 facilities at 1,168 companies. Most came from companies in the US and UK, which are among the most advanced in terms of vaccination plans.
