Pandemic Vaccinations Policy

Overview:

The University of Adelaide has a duty of care to ensure, so far as reasonably practicable, a safe workplace for all staff (and other workers) and a safe environment for students and others in the workplace. Pandemics present unique challenges and can give rise to the need to make a broad direction regarding a vaccination mandate and/or alternative controls for those whom are unvaccinated in order to manage the University's responsibilities under the Work Health and Safety Act 2012 (SA).
