FAQ

If an employee initially declines the vaccination, and then decides to have it, the employer must pay for the initial vaccination series and post-vaccination testing, and second vaccination series and testing, if necessary. Employers are not required to provide the vaccination to employees who have already received it.

If an employee initially declines the vaccination, and then decides to have it, the employer must pay for the initial vaccination series and post-vaccination testing, and second vaccination series and testing, if necessary.

I Decline the Hepatitis B Vaccination I have been given the opportunity to be vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine, at no charge to myself. However, I decline hepatitis B vaccination at this time. I understand that by declining this vaccine, I continue to be at risk of acquiring hepatitis B, a serious disease.

It is also possible that a person who does not respond to the vaccine may already be infected with hepatitis B. Therefore, testing for the presence of the hepatitis B virus (hepatitis B surface antigen or HBsAg) is recommended before diagnosing a person as a "vaccine non-responder."

For instance, sometimes the hepatitis B vaccination is delayed if a baby is premature, has a low birth weight, or is medically challenged. Still, parents always have the option to refuse a vaccination if they want to. But the risks associated with a hepatitis B infection far outweigh the risks of the vaccine.

People who are non-responders after receiving the booster should be tested for hepatitis B virus infection. If negative, they are recommended to receive 2 more doses of hepatitis B vaccine 1 month apart. Count the 4th booster dose as the 1st of the 3 repeat doses.

Employers must ensure that workers who decline vaccination sign a declination form. The purpose of this is to encourage greater participation in the vaccination program by stating that a worker declin- ing the vaccination remains at risk of acquiring hepatitis B.
