Calls for ministers to put pressure on employers after survey suggests only 45% of firms offer time off with pay
The TUC has urged the government to put pressure on employers who it claims are hindering the UK’s vaccine rollout by refusing to give staff paid time off to receive and recover from their Covid jabs.
The trade union body said in a poll of private sector employers it found fewer than half were offering staff paid time-off to attend their vaccination appointments.
