Employee COVID -19 Vaccination Recording

As COVID-19 restrictions ease across Australia and businesses reopen, it is important for you to know your rights and obligations regarding vaccinations for your employees and industry.  

Some business industries are restricted under state or territory government public health directions. Hospitality, Clubs & Pubs have been advised that, upon reopening, all visiting members, guests, and staff can only access the premises if they are fully vaccinated or medically exempt.

 Requirements for proof of vaccination and medical exemptions for employees are different in each state and territory, so it is essential to stay up-to-date with the latest advice and requirements. COVID-19 information for business requirements by state or territory can be found on the Australian Government Business website. 

Why Employee Vaccination Recording is Important?

Government Public Health Orders have been put in place at airports, in quarantine, and across a number of industries including aged care, education, childcare, disability and home care, and some parts of the health care sector.

Kyle Scott director from Australian Business Lawyers and Advisors spoke to HRD and said that “Businesses are able to self-mandate for employees if they can establish that a requirement for their workers to be vaccinated is a lawful and reasonable direction.”

The privacy implications of collecting vaccination records can easily be overlooked or misunderstood. The collection of vaccination information can be a sensitive issue for many, and it is therefore imperative that businesses are mindful of their obligations. The Australian Payroll Association has provided an article highlighting key privacy considerations in their article. Your privacy obligations explained.
