        \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAll new employees shall be fully vaccinated against COVID 19-prior to their start date.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t For clarity, fully vaccinated means that 14 days have elapsed after completion of your vaccine series (i.e. full two doses). The Hospital\u2019s Occupational Health team will require evidence of full vaccination prior to an employee\u2019s start date. If not fully vaccinated, the Hospital\u2019s Occupational Health team can assist successful applicants with setting up the necessary appointments to become fully vaccinated, but any start date may be delayed to the date on which a successful applicant becomes fully vaccinated. The hospital\u2019s requirement that successful applicants be fully vaccinated is subject to any accommodation obligations it may have under the Human Rights Code. Employees shall also be required to obtain boosters or other vaccinations related to COVID-19, as deemed necessary by the Hospital, and any failure to do so will be considered willful misconduct and\/or disobedience and will result in the termination of the Employee\u2019s employment without notice or pay in lieu thereof.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
