Nearly half of employers say they're at least considering the idea of requiring proof of vaccination as a condition for employees return to in-person work, according to a survey from Willis Towers Watson.
Why it matters: The gradual upticks in mass vaccinations has allowed America's workforce to begin to picture reopened office buildings.
The big picture: Employers have the legal right to require that their workers get COVID-19 vaccines, with accommodations for religious objections and employees with disabilities.
By the numbers: 34% of employers said they are planning or considering mandating vaccines as a condition of employment, according to the WTW report, which surveyed 494 businesses employing 6.4 million people.
Yes, but: Vaccine mandates do risk backlash, Ross Silverman, a professor at Indiana University, told Pew Charitable Trusts, and it could be better for companies to encourage vaccination and make it easily available for those who want it if possible, he said.
- Still, employers expect nearly two in five employees will still be working remotely at the end of 2021, compared with 57% who work remotely now, varying by industry.
- “That’s really where I think most of the conversations should be leaning, is how can you make workplaces safe as a system,” he said, “rather than trying to create a requirement for vaccination.”
- 65% of employers said they are planning or considering exploring vendor solutions to provide vaccines, according to the WTW survey.
This thread is comical. GWB-Faking at it again. The mandate has been rejected and reject again by the courts. Even the majority of democrats are against mandates.
It does not surprise me. GWB-Faking is against sending children to school.
GWB-Faking = Wrong side of History
