We require TDaP for our OB and nursery staff- and offer it to all other employees.

We offer it but do not require it.
It is not a condition of employment.

Do any of your institutions require Tdap at time of hire as a condition of employment?  HR is revisiting some policies and would like to know.

Also, do you postpone N95 fit testing using Bitrex for pregnancy?  We have a recent refusal by a pregnant woman due to the knowledge that INGESTED saccharin crosses the placenta.  I cannot find any documentation about INHALED dilution of saccharin and pregnancy.
Thanks for your responses.
