With the emergence of COVID-19, the health of human being around the world was affected largely. The number of infected cases due to COVID-19 is increasing worldwide and more people died because of the disease. One of the clusters for COVID-19 infections is at the workplace. Hence, vaccination is essential to reduce the rising number of infected cases in Malaysia. This paper intended to achieve several objectives, firstly, to examine the issues and challenges arising in mandating the COVID-19 vaccine as a condition for work and secondly, to analyse the mandatory vaccination practice in other jurisdictions. This paper adopts a doctrinal approach with references to case law, legislation, current issues and practices in other jurisdictions. Finally, this paper provides suggestions to implement compulsory vaccination at the workplace in forming herd immunity against COVID-19. |
