Pandemic Planning. In the event there are reasonable indications of the emergence of a pandemic any employee working at more than one health care facility will, upon the request of the hospital, provide information of such employment to the hospital. No consequence will flow from such disclosure, other than as strictly necessary to prevent the spread of infection.
Pandemic Planning. The following provision will appear in all Collective Agreements replacing any Pandemic Planning provision that existed in the Hospital's expiring Collective Agreement:
Pandemic Planning. Efforts to minimize contacts between large groups of individuals (referred to as “social distancing”) may become an important element in the prevention of the spread of infection. If the situation is serious enough in nature; the employer may enforce staggered shifts to reduce the contact between co-workers, and the general public. In the event of high rates of absenteeism, employees may be required to perform other duties and responsibilities within the City. Article 28.06 would apply.

Pandemic Planning. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ examined eight European pandemic plans published after 2009 in terms of framing of visions associated with the plans (5). They especially looked at signs of securitization of pandemic influenza. They argue that securitization was led by the WHO in the updated guidelines of 2013 where each WHO Member State is encouraged to conduct its own risk assessment and to adopt a framework of ‘Emergency Risk Management for Health’. The examined plans varied in length from 47-247 pages. The national plans of Czech Republic, France and Switzerland all had official versions translated into English and the Scandinavian authors examined the plans of Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Norway. They also studied the United Kingdom plan published in 2011. The Swiss, Norwegian and UK plans describe how stakeholders have been consulted in the development of the plans but stakeholder involvement was not outlined in the remaining plans. The authors describe both the British and the French plans as the most securitized and that these plans use uncertainty about the nature of future pandemics in a strategic way, accepting that there are many unknowns about the future pandemic and that we must learn to deal with the crisis in a very uncertain context. Three of the countries use pandemic phases published by WHO in 2009, rather than the updated phases in the new 2013 WHO guidance (6). The other plans use a different system and number of phases or stages e.g. 4 in France and 5 in the UK. The authors describe the French and the UK as using risk-based staging and Denmark and Switzerland as using epidemiologically based staging. They also describe a difference in emphasis on the possibility to delay spread in a country describing the Danish and the UK plans as most pessimistic in that regard. The plans also differ in the prioritisation or main strategic objective; some plans prioritise protection of life and health of the population whereas others give equal weight to societal functions. Not all countries include mass vaccination of the total population while four countries mention this as a possibility. Some countries describe wide deployment of antivirals in the early phases while others will mainly use them for treatment of serious disease and protection of at risk groups. Only Denmark and Finland mention adverse events following immunization, referring to the association of narcolepsy with the use of AS03-adjuvanted pandemic vaccine (Pandemrix) in 2009 in Sweden, Finlan...
