VICSU issues it’s official statement strongly condemning the violence of todays protests and encouraging Security Workers to follow health advice and get vaccinated.
Regarding Violent Protesting
We strongly condemn the recent violence towards Victoria Police
Officers and Journalists during the recent Protests.
Workers were hurt today while doing their job, no Union supports that.
Regarding Vaccinations
We are not Medical Experts.
This is why we follow the health advice of medical experts, which is
overwhelmingly that people should get vaccinated.
We encourage Security Workers to follow the advice of Medical Experts
and to speak to their doctor about any personal medical concerns.
Regarding Mandatory Vaccinations
We do not support Employers mandating vaccinations exceeding the
mandates of the Victorian Government.
We do support Employers prioritizing employees who are fully
vaccinated for frontline work until immunity can be tested for.
