Vaccination Policy Statement

The University is committed to providing and maintaining healthy and safe working and learning environments for all employees, students, volunteers and visitors.

The University's Vaccination Policy-COVID-19 Requirements for Employees and Students (the "Vaccination Policy"), requires all McMaster community members, including employees, accessing a McMaster campus or facility in person to be fully vaccinated or to have received an exemption from the University for a valid human rights ground.

While the Policy will be currently paused, this Policy may resume quickly and on short notice, as informed by public health advice and direction.

As a result, failure to achieve and maintain fully vaccinated status or an approved human rights-based exemption may result in termination of employment.

This is a term and condition of employment. The University will continue to follow the guidance of public health organizations to define fully vaccinated status.
