OSHA’s Vaccine/Testing Mandate is Here: Now What? (Webinar recording and slides)
Eight weeks after President Biden’s announcement, the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has issued an Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) requiring all employers with at least 100 employees to ensure their workers are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or submit to weekly COVID-19 testing. This ETS affects millions of private-sector workers and is an aggressive step by the federal government to curb the COVID-19 pandemic. While many groups are gearing up to oppose the emergency standard, a January 4, 2022 deadline still looms.
Members of Maynard’s nationally recognized Labor & Employment practice hosted a webinar on November 9, 2021, to unpack the implications of the federal ruling on businesses and employees. The recorded webinar discussion, including Q&A, in its entirety, can be viewed here. Presentation slides presented by our panelists are available here.
