Staff Screening - Infectious Symptoms
KHSC staff must avoid coming to the workplace when ill with potentially infectious symptoms, in order to prevent the spread of infection to our patients and/or your co-workers.
Visit the Infectious Screening Tool for Staff to find out what more about what symptoms are potentially infectious and remember to report your infectious symptoms to Occupational Health, Safety & Wellness (OHSW) via the Infectious Reporting Line for Staff (x4399 via the KGH site).
Visit the Return-to-Work Guidance for Infectious Symptoms to learn more about when you can return to the workplace and what precautions must be taken.
