What is the main purpose of the Contractor Vaccination Policy?

The main purpose of the Contractor Vaccination Policy is to ensure that Covered Employees are vaccinated against COVID-19 or have valid exemptions. This policy is crucial as it aims to protect the health and safety of both workers and the general public by ensuring that those who are working on projects are either immunized against the virus or have documented reasons for not being vaccinated. This contributes to reducing the spread of COVID-19 within workplaces and the community, ultimately promoting a safer working environment.

In this context, while reducing project costs, managing work hours, and increasing employee retention are all important aspects of contractor management, they do not directly address the immediate health concerns posed by the pandemic or the requirements set forth by health authorities. The focus of the vaccination policy is primarily on health safety compliance rather than these operational focuses.
