Common use of HEPATITIS VACCINATION Clause in Contracts

HEPATITIS VACCINATION. To minimize the contraction of hepatitis, employees in the classification series of Correctional Officers, Juvenile Correctional Officers, and Security Officers shall be screened to determine if the hepatitis vaccination will be of medical benefit to the employee. If it is determined to be of benefit, the employee shall receive the necessary vaccinations at County expense. Such screening and vaccinations shall be paid for by the employee’s department. The Association agrees that employees who are not able to receive the screenings and vaccinations while on duty, shall present themselves at times designated by the County without causing the expenditure of overtime. Scheduling for this process shall be at the sole discretion of the County. Newly hired employees entering these classifications shall complete the screening and the initiation of the vaccination processes within ninety (90) days of their date of hire.
