Woolworths and Coles staff will be required to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 in the coming months.
The mandate enforced by the nation’s biggest retailers will apply to all staff including those working in stores, distribution centres and offices.
Woolworths employed 170,000 staff while Coles has more than 100,000 workers.
For Woolworths staff in NSW, ACT, Victoria, NT, and WA, they will need to have received the jab by January 31.
Workers in all other states will be required to be vaxxed before March 31, unless their states are enforcing specific mandates which would mean they need to be jabbed before.
All 170,000 Woolworths workers will be required to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 in the coming months
Coles has meanwhile announced their vaccine mandate will apply to staff working in Victoria, NSW, the ACT, WA and the Northern Territory.
More to come.
