Aviso importante para las candidatos y candidatas
Requisito de vacunación COVID
Edwards se compromete a cumplir con los requisitos y orientaciones de nuestras autoridades gubernamentales y a proteger a nuestros pacientes vulnerables y a los proveedores de atención sanitaria que los tratan en todo el mundo. Como tal, todos los puestos de trabajo que interactúan con la atención sanitaria requieren la vacunación COVID-19, lo que incluye a cualquier persona que interactúe directamente con los pacientes y a aquellos que interactúan con los proveedores de atención sanitaria como parte de su función. En caso de ser contratado, como condición para el empleo, se le pedirá que presente una prueba de que se ha vacunado completamente contra la COVID-19 o que tiene una exención religiosa o médica válida para no vacunarse. Este requisito de vacunación no se aplica en los países en los que está prohibido por ley imponer la vacunación. En los países en los que las vacunas están menos disponibles, o en los que existen otros requisitos, podemos instituir medidas alternativas que optimicen la seguridad del paciente y del personal sanitario, que pueden incluir pruebas periódicas de COVID o requisitos específicos de enmascaramiento.
