As of 16 May, if a worker subject to the Vaccinations Order tests positive for COVID-19 for the first time, then their employer can provide the temporary medical exemption from receiving a COVID-19 vaccine booster.

This new process is for employers who have mandated workers who have recently recovered from or tested positive for COVID-19 and are therefore eligible for a temporary medical exemption.

Now, the employer recognises and administer their workers’ exemption from vaccination for 100 days on the verification of a positive COVID-19 test.
