Who must maintain confidential vaccination or medical surveillance records under Class 314?

• A. The employee themselves
• B. Public health authorities
• C. Training coordinators
• D. The employer

Answer: (D)

The employer must maintain confidential vaccination and medical surveillance records. This keeps medical information private, stored securely, and accessible to the employee or their authorized representative on request, while allowing disclosure to health authorities when required by law. The employer serves as the custodian of the safety program’s records, including vaccination status and medical evaluations, and must retain them for the legally required period. While employees can access their own records and authorities may request information through proper channels, the ongoing responsibility to maintain and protect these records lies with the employer.
