University of Calgary Calendar 2016-2017 Academic Regulations O. Statement of Support for Persons with Life Threatening Communicable Illnesses
O. Statement of Support for Persons with Life Threatening Communicable Illnesses

The University recognizes that persons suffering from life threatening communicable illnesses have a right and a responsibility to continue in their regular work or academic pursuits as long as they are capable of carrying out the duties and obligations associated with those pursuits; and recognizes that individuals who contract a life-threatening communicable illness are entitled to continue in their employment or studies provided that the health, safety and well-being of others are not endangered.

The University is guided in the application of this policy by current research findings and medical advice relevant to the individual case.

All members of the University community are urged to recognize the responsibility they have for ensuring that those with such illnesses are treated in a caring and supportive manner.
