Job Description

As MKS is a federal contractor, it must comply with the Biden Administration’s federal contractor vaccine mandate if it is reinstated by the courts. Should you receive and accept an offer of employment, you will be asked whether you are fully vaccinated or whether you will apply for an exemption (due to a (a) qualifying medical condition, certified by your healthcare provider or (b) sincerely held religious belief, practice, or observance that prevents you from receiving the vaccine) in the event MKS must enforce a mandatory vaccination policy in the future. Please be aware that if the federal contractor mandate is reinstated and you choose to remain unvaccinated without an approved exemption, MKS will not be able to continue to employ you.
