Mandatory Covid-19 Vaccination Policy For Employees
Consistent with its duty to provide and maintain a workplace that is free of recognized hazards, Keiser University ('KU') has adopted a Mandatory Covid-19 Vaccination Policy for Employees. This policy is intended to safeguard the health and well-being of employees and their families, our students, visitors, and others who spend time on our campuses and in our facilities from Covid-19's infectious conditions that can be reduced through an effective mandatory employee vaccination program. This policy complies with all state and local laws and is based upon guidance provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and public health and licensing authorities, as applicable.
This policy applies to all KU employees: faculty (including regular full-time and part-time faculty, administrative faculty, and adjunct faculty), regular full-time and part-time non-faculty staff, temporary employees, third party vendors and individuals receiving offers of employment in any of these categories. Individuals receiving offers of employment are required to timely comply with this policy prior to the commencement of employment by attesting to a completed vaccination or receipt of HR vaccine exemption approval. Individuals receiving offers of employment from KU who do not timely comply with this policy will have their offer of employment rescinded.
Employees who do not want to vaccinate due to a strong moral conviction must document this within our internal portal. Much like those with accommodation requests they must comply with wearing of a mask while on campus per the CDC social distancing guidelines in addition to mandatory testing twice per week.
