Attention: Mandatory Vaccination against COVID-19 at GSK

Since the beginning of the pandemic, we have implemented numerous measures aimed at protecting everyone against COVID-19, as well as following the guidelines of the authorities with discipline.

As a science-led healthcare company and a world leader in Vaccines, GSK plays an important role in disease prevention. We believe that vaccination against COVID-19 is the most effective way to stop the contamination and spread of new variants of the coronavirus. Only mass immunization protects everyone in the community and reduces the risk of contagion.

In this context, GSK has taken the decision to require all employees to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Therefore, the presentation of the vaccination certificate against COVID-19 will be one of the requirements during the admission process.
