Mining giant BHP will continue to lock out unvaccinated employees from its worksites despite the State Government scrapping the vaccination mandate for most WA workers from Friday.

Under BHP’s health and safety controls applying from June 10, all employees, job applicants, and visitors seeking access to sites or offices will still require at least two doses of a COVID vaccine.

It said its decision to maintain the strict vaccination mandate as public health orders ease was based on its own assessment of the latest science and health advice.
