Some special event opportunities require proof of 2 valid doses of the Covid-19 vaccine. Please note that you may be asked to provide one upon request.
Vaccination Status
In order to strengthen and promote health protection to patients/clients/staff and members of the public attending in our facilities, offers of volunteer status will be conditional on furnishing proof of Covid-19 vaccination (all recommended doses) from the Ontario Ministry of Health website or other authorized source and volunteering shall not take effect until after such proof is furnished to the Volunteer Department. In the event that a prospective volunteer is unable to be vaccinated as a result of a ground protected under the Human Rights Code, applicants may submit a written explanation of the ground and any supporting documentation to determine if they are exempt from this requirement.
Are you able to comply to the above requirement, with the noted exceptions?
Yes
No
