[MCOH-EH] Remote Workers

[Erika Sweet]

Our staff who are truly 100% remote, meaning they have (no job duties that require them to report to any of our healthcare providing campuses including meetings or conferences) are not required to be screened for vaccine preventable disease or tb at hire or annually. The hiring manager identifies them as 100% remote, which removes them from all medical surveillance. If job assignment ever change, the manager enrolls them in health screening surveillance.

Good morning
Our organization has historically required all employees to follow the same immunization requirements whether they worked remotely or not.
The philosophy and thinking was/is , if you work in health care you should be.
What do your organizations do?
Thank you in advance
