Case Study: a U.S. healthcare company adjusts recruiting for a COVID-19 vaccine mandate with PeopleScout

Helping a healthcare company adjust their Recruitment program following a new covid-19 Vaccine policy

A U.S. healthcare company faced the recruitment challenge of implementing a new company-wide COVID-19 vaccination policy without negatively impacting its hiring processes. To meet this need, the healthcare company engaged its existing recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) partner, PeopleScout, to adjust its recruitment program to ensure all new hires would be compliant with the mandate.

PeopleScout modified job descriptions and application forms to screen for vaccine status, automating the disqualification of non-compliant candidates. To reduce candidate drop-off, PeopleScout implemented a follow-up procedure that successfully requalified several applicants who had answered in error. The team also managed candidate communications and inquiries regarding the policy and accommodation process, gathering valuable data for the client while improving the candidate experience.
