BC public servants no longer required to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination

BY B.C Govenment, Mar 10, 2023 8:58 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

This change also means that contractors and other non-employees do not need to be vaccinated to enter BC Public Service workplaces.

As of April 3, 2023, BC Public Service employees will no longer be required to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19.

The decision to rescind the policy was made based on the high level of vaccination among public-service employees and the current state of the pandemic.

More than 98% of employees met the requirement, which helped keep everyone safe.

Rescinding the vaccination policy means a small number of employees on administrative leave due to non-compliance will be provided the opportunity to return to the workplace.

The Public Service Agency has provided direction to ministries and will work with supervisors to support a smooth transition.

This change also means that contractors and other non-employees do not need to be vaccinated to enter BC Public Service workplaces.
