TOKYO, July 21 (Reuters) - Shares of Tama Home 1419.T
dropped 5% on Wednesday after weekly magazine Shukan Bunshun
reported the company is effectively banning its workers from
getting COVID-19 vaccines, a claim the company denied last week.
Shukan Bunshun said Tama Home has told its employees
vaccinated staff should not come to the office and that they
would be put on unpaid leave.
The homebuilder, which has more than 3,000 employees, said
last week that anonymous allegations on Twitter that it is
forcing its employees not to get COVID-19 vaccines are not true.
