Many employers in the United States have been encouraging their employees to get vaccinated against Covid-19 to make their workplace safer and protect their communities. But the spread of the Delta variant and declining rates of new vaccinations brings new urgency to the effort to increase vaccination rates.
Even for those companies with a lower risk of on-site transmission, mandates can increase employees’ and customers’ perceptions of safety. Employers may implement vaccination mandates for high-risk employees, such as for those who travel frequently for business, to avoid quarantines or illness away from home.
The Equal Opportunity Employment Commission requires US employers to offer exemptions to vaccination mandates for religious or medical reasons. But it allows employers to reassign or terminate employees if their unvaccinated status would make the workplace unsafe and any accommodation would lead to “undue hardship” for the business. Employers that mandate vaccination can require those who are not vaccinated to have frequent tests to decrease the chance of Covid-19 entering the workplace.
