We’re all being encouraged to roll up our sleeves to receive the Covid-19 vaccine. Some industries have introduced mandates. Companies like Qantas, SPC and others say all staff MUST get the vaccine.

So, do vaccine mandates create more problems than they solve? What if you don’t want to get the jab? Can you be forced to get it?

We’re joined by Ben Davis from the Australian Workers Union to discuss the mandate in the Victorian construction industry and Hugh de Kretser, Executive Director at the Human Rights Law Centre to discuss the legal minefield of health mandates.

The vaccine mandate debate on today’s Briefing.
