More than four in 10 small business owners say they have had to shut down operations at some point as a result of the pandemic, including 20% who say they have since reopened at limited capacity; 10% who say they still have not reopened; and even 4% who say they shut down, reopened, and then shut down again.
Barely more than half of small business owners say they could continue operating for more than a year under the current business conditions. For these small businesses, widespread vaccine adoption may be the key to a full reopening. While small business owners overall have limited enthusiasm for vaccination requirements, certain industries appear to be more open to the idea than others, especially those that rely on close, person-to-person interactions between customers and staff.Small business owners in the accomodation and food services industry — e.g. restaurants, bars, casinos, B&Bs, caterers — are some of the most likely to report a willingness to require their workers to get vaccinated.
Some 28% say they will mandate that their employees get the vaccine once it becomes available to them, while another 33% say they aren't sure yet. Both of those are well above the overall averages. Meanwhile, just 32% say they are sure they won't require their workers to get vaccinated — 10 points lower than the overall average.
Some big players in the industry have already stepped up to push their workers to get vaccinated, whether they are requiring them to do so or just giving them strong encouragement.
Main street will win the talent wars. Mandating vaccination on the workplace means you will lose talent. Not because they don’t want To protect themselves.... but because it’s ends up just becoming another form of workplace discrimination. It’s a simple equation.
