Here’s how employers are pushing workers to get vaccinated

India – has been fairly successful in vaccinating its citizens and especially the labor force. It can be gathered by the data released that nearly 128 millions in India, which is 50 percent of the population of the nation, have received vaccination.

Out of 85 percent of the 18 plus population has received inoculation which means that India is on the increasing trend to getting a full vaccination certificate. Only roadblock here is a large section of the audience that does not want to receive the vaccination which is mostly the workers population.

One would assume that it is to do with the employers that the workers are not getting vaccinated but contrary to this belief of them not making an effort for workers to receive vaccination, they are actually making efforts to get the workforce properly vaccinated.
