Within the social services in Uddevalla, everyone who works with care-related work with the elderly or other users must now be fully vaccinated against covid-19.

The decision is made by the social services as they want to protect the elderly and users from infection.

The decision concerns everyone who works in substance abuse care, LSS and elderly care.

The decision taken by the social services means that from 21 October, employees will be asked whether they have been vaccinated or not.

"Should not have to answer the question"

The municipality is now JO-reported according to the requirement for vaccinated care staff.

"

According to the Swedish constitution, you must not demand that an employee is vaccinated and you should not have to answer the question of whether you are vaccinated as this is covered by secrecy

," the person writes in the report to the Ombudsman (JO).
