Can anyone provide any advice on administering the Hep B vaccination to employees in a housing association company? I do not feel the risks are high enough to administer to all employees as PPE is provided and so reduces the risks greatly. I have spoken to HSE and there are no hard and fast rules as to what type of industries need to provide it. When I was training I visited a sewage works in Birmingham who were being assessed at the time and were told they did not need to give their employees the vaccination. Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated as the company are offering it to everyone and I do not believe it is necessary.
Many thanks,
Cathryn Richardson
