Morocco Mandates Vaccine Pass for Public Offices and Government Workers

On Wednesday, government ministers sent circulars to their central and external services, informing them of the obligation to have a vaccine pass before accessing public places. Civil servants of public, semi-public and private establishments must also present the vaccine pass before accessing their offices, reports the daily Assabah.

"We will proceed, at first, with a lot of flexibility. After, it is up to the authorities to decide, by regulatory means, on the course of action. As a minister, I cannot prohibit a civil servant from accessing his work without a legal basis," explains a minister of the Akhannouch government.

In a statement to the newspaper Assabah, the Minister of Health, Khalid Aït Taleb, affirmed that rigorous and regular checks will be carried out to ensure compliance with these measures.
