Aged care staff member takes leave for Pfizer jab

I note your article (Peninsula News, June 15) lamenting the inability of staff at the Blue Wave Living facility to get vaccinated against Covid.

I know of one staff member who wanted to do the correct thing and get the jab, but it was made much more difficult by Blue Wave Living's policy towards their own hardworking staff.

Being under 50, the nearest place the staff member could get the Pfizer jab at the time was a hospital in far western Sydney.

Their request to take a day's sick leave to travel to get the vaccination was denied and they were told they had to take a day of their annual leave for each shot, which they reluctantly did.

How is that fair?
