No employer can force Covid-19 vaccination – MUT
In a reaction issued to a media report stating that an independent school is threatening educators with dismissal should they refrain from taking the Covid-19 vaccine, the Malta Union of Teachers communicated with the Director of Employment and with the Health Superintendence requesting their action and enforcement of applicable laws in force. The MUT is ready to name and shame any employer who does not adhere with legislation and who uses threatening tactics with educators. It is shameful to hear that this is the way that an employer is thanking educators for going out of their way to pursue with teaching and learning against all odds during a pandemic.
