Telus is the latest Canadian employer to tell workers they must be vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to go to work.
Beginning Oct. 1, all Telus team members and guests will be required to be fully vaccinated to enter a Telus building.
Telus employees working with the public in retail, health, or tech support must be fully vaccinated by Oct. 15 or submit to at least twice-weekly testing to prove they are virus-free.
Vaccinated employees working from home will be allowed to return to their offices in January, the company said Tuesday.
Employees who donB次元官网网址檛 get vaccinated will continue to work from home.
Telus says 89 per cent of its employees support vaccination.
Telus joins CanadaB次元官网网址檚 five big banks B次元官网网址� BMO, RBC, TD, CIBC and Scotiabank B次元官网网址� in making shots mandatory for staff.
Last month, the federal government announced it will make vaccinations mandatory for all of its workers.
