I have to go into people's homes everyday. Probably 20 homes a week.

But I do not have the right to refuse going if the occupants or home owners are not vaccinated themselves... I still have to do the work, or lose my job.

Now, I am the one running the risk, even though I take precautions like wearing a mask, gloves and being fully vaccinated, etc.

And there are 1000's like me in my situation... Tradies, estimators and contractors going into private homes everyday.

How is that fair?
I think you raise fair points, and I’d certainly have no issues being upfront with a tradie on our status (we’re both fully vaxed). I’d also be happy to take whatever steps were needed to reduce any risk to them as much as possible.

To give you some comfort, the precautions you’re taking reduce your risk a lot.
