Covid-19 Message
At NUS the health and safety of our staff and students are one of our utmost priorities and COVID-vaccination supports our commitment to ensure the safety of our community and to make NUS as safe and welcoming as possible. Many of our roles require a significant amount of physical interactions with students/staff/public members. Even for job roles that may be performed remotely there will be instances where on-campus presences are required.
In accordance with Singapore's legal requirements unvaccinated workers will not be able to work on the NUS premises with effect from 15 January 2022. As such job applicants will need to be fully COVID-19 vaccinated to secure successful employment with NUS.
