We have a mandatory policy and employees who have an approved religious
or medical exemption are required to wear masks when they are in patient
care areas. The employee signs a masking agreement with their supervisor
at the time the exemption is approved. The signed masking agreement is
kept in their department file and managers are accountable for monitoring
compliance.

We have a mandatory policy for flu vaccinations, but we allow staff to
decline and wear a facemask in patient care areas to meet compliance.

Our organization has a mandatory flu vaccination policy. Employees
who are vaccinated have a sticker on their badge denoting that they have
received the vaccine. Managers are also sent lists of outstanding
employees who need to be vaccinated on a periodic basis.

What are your organizations doing to help managers identify who has or
has not had a flu vaccine? At this time we are not mandatory but they have
to wear a mask if they decline.
