Paid Vaccination Leave

As of May 21st over 44 percent of all Albertans have received their first dose of their vaccine, with over 7 percent now being fully vaccinated. These are encouraging numbers but a lot of Albertans still struggle with finding the time with having commitments to work and other things. But did you know that all Albertans are able to access paid leave for up to three hours to receive either of their doses, per making arrangements and notice with employers all part and full time staff regardless of employment time are able to access this leave. Bill 71 ensures all Albertans have paid, job protected leave in order to be vaccinated. To book an appointment today visit albertahealthservices.ca or by calling 811 at Healthlink.
