Maple Leaf Foods Imposes Proof of Vaccination Requirement

01/03/2022

Effective April 1st 2022 Maple Leaf Foods will require proof of vaccination for employees, contractors, and visitors entering any company-owned facility including hog farms operated by the Company.  The requirement does not apply to contractors or independent producers who sell to Maple Leaf Foods. 

 

The effective date is three months hence allowing for compliance.  Given the incidence rate of COVID fueled by the emergence of the Omicron variant, a more immediate date of compliance is indicated.  Maple Leaf Foods recorded cases of COVID among workers in plants in Canada consistent with the incidence rates in U.S. red meat facilities in 2020.
