As part of our continued response to COVID-19, we are closely following Department of Health and Social Care's (DHSC) guidance and the government's proposals for new mandatory COVID-19 vaccination legislation. This means that full COVID-19 vaccination will be a condition of employment in all NHS roles which have face-to-face contact with patients and service users from 1 April 2022 unless exempt. This also means that by 3 February 2022 all such staff will need to have had their first COVID-19 vaccination. We expect the need to be vaccinated to apply to the vast majority of roles, although this may not be a requirement in some limited, exceptional circumstances. Should your role be identified as being within the scope of the legislation, you will be required to provide evidence of your vaccination status (or a legitimate exemption from these requirements) as a condition of your employment.
