COVID shot mandates persist for Ontario health workers despite staffing crisis
Ontario Health at Home’s enforcement of COVID shot mandates for new hires prohibits unjabbed healthcare workers from employment, despite a severe staffing crisis.
In a newly posted job description, Ontario Health at Home advertises for a project specialist to assist with at-home care for Ontarians, while also insisting that candidates be “fully vaccinated” against COVID. “We have a mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policy,” the posting reads. “As a condition of employment, all employees are required to submit proof of COVID-19 vaccination status prior to start date.”
Ontario’s continued enforcement of COVID shot mandates comes after all other provinces have lifted the mandate. In 2022, Ontario updated its policy to remove provincial jab requirements but encourages medical agencies to enforce the mandates on their own.
Now, while the provincial mandates have been officially dropped, power given to bureaucrats during the height of the COVID “pandemic” has allowed shot mandates to be enforced in hospitals across the province.
