Unvaccinated nursing staff do not have to be employed in retirement homes
Care facilities do not have to continue to employ employees who have not been vaccinated against the coronavirus. This was decided by the Hesse Higher Labor Court in two rulings on August 11, 2022 (Ref. 5 SaGa 728/22 and 7 SaGa 729/22). Among other things, the decision was based on the fact that the mandatory proof of a coronavirus vaccination in accordance with the Infection Protection Act is a prerequisite for employment.
