McMaster to offer paid vaccination leave for employees

McMaster University has approved a paid COVID-19 Vaccination Leave for all employees. 

Effective immediately, all employees can leave for up to three hours during the workday on two occasions, to get their COVID-19 vaccinations.

“Providing paid time off for those whose appointments are during working hours is an important way to support the good health of our employees and our community,” McMaster said in a written statement on April 20.
