Dozens of employees at Sudbury’s Health Sciences North (HSN) have been put on unpaid leave for not meeting the hospital’s vaccination compliance rules. The employees have been told they need to meet the vaccination policy within days or they could lose their jobs. “As of Monday, November 15th, HSN had 76 employees who were not compliant with the mandatory vaccination policy and who were put on unpaid leave. This represents two per cent of employees,” said Jason Turnbull, manager of communications and community engagement at HSN. Job termination could present difficulties for health care employees seeking new employment since virtually all healthcare venues now require vaccinations for new hires.
