Dear Cody
Official information request for Covid-19 Vaccination Mandate
I refer to your Official Information Act request dated 25 January 2022 below:
“
Please advise total number of staff that are not vaccinated and the total number of staff.
Please also provide your Covid-19 vaccination policy.”
As you may be aware, on 17 December 2021 after a period of consultation, Airways’ made the
decision to mandate COVID-19 vaccinations (including boosters) for: (1) all new employees;
and (2) all current employees working on Airways sites. All employees are required to have
received their first vaccination by 31 January 2022, their second vaccination by 28 February
2022 and their booster within 6 months of their second vaccination.
As at today’s date (17 February 2022) we can provide you with the following information:
Total number of staff:
816
No. of staff not vaccinated:
23
Also attached is Airways’ COVID-19 Response and Vaccination Framework.
