NZSA security update – mandated workplace vaccinations

New legislation is coming in at the end of November to mandate vaccinations for workers at businesses where customers need to show Covid-19 vaccination certificates.

For other businesses, a new process will be created later this year about how to assess if work needs to be carried out by a vaccinated worker. In the meantime:

  • encourage staff to check their vaccination records on My Covid Record.
  • see guidance on how to make an interim risk assessment under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015.

For interim guidance see the WorkSafe website.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions or require assistance.

Stay safe and keep well.

The NZSA team.
