Terminated staff due to vaccination status at RNZ
Erika Whittome made this Official Information request to Radio New Zealand Limited
The request was successful.
From: Erika Whittome
Dear Radio New Zealand Limited,
I understand the government vaccination mandates were dropped sometime around Sept 2022 with the revoking of certain Covid19 orders by the state.
1. What number of staff did RNZ terminate or place on any form of " extended leave" due to vaccination mandates in 2021/2022?
2. When did you initiate and then remove your policy for only employing vaccinated staff?
3. Would you please kindly share the emails and correspondence regarding this decision to initiate and then remove this policy for only hiring vaccinated staff?
4. Please share a copy of the policy in its draft and final form
5. Please share the workplace risk assessment for the Covid-19 disease
Yours faithfully,
Erika Whittome
