Covid Update For NSW Employees

​

Last Updated: Friday 22nd October 2021

​

The majority of our Regal Recruitment employees are affected in some way by Covid and Vaccination Rules implemented by the NSW Government. 

Please read the below carefully and reach out to our office if you want further explanation or email jobs@regalrecruitment.com.au

These rules are mandated by NSW Government and fines can be issued to people who do not comply so I urge you to follow these rules and ask for help if you do not understand. 

 

The rules change frequently so please check this page regularly and also keep our office updated of any changes to your contact details including Address, Email Address, Mobile Phone and Emergency Contacts.
