Avviso importante per i candidati
Obbligo di vaccinazione contro il COVID
Edwards si impegna a rispettare i requisiti e le indicazioni delle pubbliche autorità, oltre a proteggere sia i nostri pazienti vulnerabili, sia gli operatori sanitari che se ne prendono cura in tutto il mondo. Proprio per questo richiediamo la vaccinazione contro il COVID-19 per tutte le posizioni che prevedono un’interazione con il sistema sanitario, ovvero per tutte le persone che nello svolgimento della loro mansione si interfacciano direttamente con i pazienti e quelle che interagiscono con gli operatori sanitari. L’assunzione è subordinata alla presentazione di una prova di vaccinazione completa contro il COVID-19 o di un esonero dalla vaccinazione per motivazioni mediche o religiose legittime. L’obbligo di vaccinazione non si applica nei Paesi in cui la legge vieta di imporre la vaccinazione. Nei Paesi con problemi di disponibilità dei vaccini, o che impongono altri requisiti, possiamo adottare misure alternative che ottimizzano la sicurezza dei pazienti e degli operatori sanitari, come test regolari per il COVID o requisiti specifici in materia di mascherine.
