To support the States in this initiative, guidelines have been prepared and the same have conveyed by the Union Health Secretary to the States and UTs.
These guidelines will support the State and District Programme Managers with the requisite information and guide them on organizing vaccination sessions at such workplaces (both public & private). Such workplace vaccination centres may be launched across States/UTs from 11th April 2021.
States have been further advised to initiate due consultations with private/public sector employers and management to prepare for launch of workplace vaccination.
Vaccination at workplace guidelines:
1 One type of vaccine will be provided at such sessions that are conducted at the Workplaces. This is necessary to avoid mixing of vaccine types in 1st and 2nd dose of a beneficiary.
2 Beneficiaries at the Workplace who have already received one dose of a vaccine different from the one being administered at the Workplace CVC shall not be vaccinated at session in the Workplace CVC. They are expected to get the second dose of the same vaccine at an appropriate COVID vaccination centre.
