Government Bars Unvaccinated Workers From Work, Withholds Salaries

All unvaccinated civil servants without any underlying medical conditions have been barred from work without salary subject to disciplinary hearings.

Those qualifying for exemption are required to provide a medical certificate certifying that vaccination can worsen their conditions.

This was announced by Public Service Commission (PSC) Permanent Secretary Ambassador Jonathan Wutawunashe in a circular addressed to all ministries dated February 11, 2022, referenced measures for Covid-19 containment within the public service. 

The circular directs the rest of the vaccinated Government workers working from home to return to work with immediate effect under strict adherence to the current lockdown normal working hours. Reads the circular:
