Vaccination and employee questions

[Agriculture, Life and Veterinary Sciences, and Cooperative Extension Weekly Bulletin]

Dear Colleagues,

Human Resources has published additional information on returning to in-person work and the COVID-19 vaccines.  Questions about the status of vaccination bear reaffirming the official University position.

  *   Vaccination is NOT mandatory.  Supervisors cannot mandate employees be vaccinated.
  *   Vaccination status CANNOT be considered by a supervisor in performance appraisals, when establishing work schedules, or any other work-related activity.
  *   There are NO lists of who has or who has not been vaccinated.  Employees CANNOT create such a list.

Please review the official University vaccine FAQs here<https://hr.arizona.edu/coronavirus-information/employee-vaccine-FAQ>.  If an employee or supervisor has questions, please contact our Human Resources consultant, Kim Ramey<mailto:Ramey,%20Kimberly%20-%20(rameyk)%20%3crameyk at arizona.edu%3e>.


Due to the pandemic, I am working remotely. I am available via email or my office phone, which is forwarded to my cell phone.  Be safe and stay well!
