Many people are asking if employers can force employees to vaccinate.
The Ontario Nurses Association (ONA) won two arbitrations in recent years (2015 and 2018) challenging hospital implemented “vaccinate or mask” (VOM) policies during the annual flu season.In the 2015 case, ONA argued that there is insufficient evidence that masks reduce the transmission of the flu and that the requirement to wear a mask if unvaccinated, was a breach of each employees’ privacy rights.
