Australia’s two biggest banks moved to mandate vaccines for all staff working at their offices and branches across the nation.
Westpac Banking Corp. and Commonwealth Bank of Australia on Thursday said they will require all employees entering a workplace in the eastern states of New South Wales, Victoria and the Australian Capital Territory to be fully vaccinated by the start of December. The same will apply to staff in other states by February next year.
