Covid-19 vaccinations as a condition of employment

 The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission said this week employers can require their employees to get COVID-19 vaccinations as a condition of going to work. The guidelines, which were published Wednesday, also say an employee can decline because of a disability or religious beliefs. In these cases, employers must offer reasonable accommodations, such as working remotely. Previous guidance from the EEOC said employers can require flu vaccines, as long as employees can seek an exemption for medical reasons under the Americans with Disabilities Act or for religious reasons under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.  #covid-19vaccinations, #covid-19vaccinatinsasaconditionofemployment,
