To Mandate Vaccination or Not: The Employer's Ultimate COVID-19 Question
Join 2nd.MD and nationally recognized law firm Baker Donelson to learn the legalities of mandatory employment vaccinations and how to plan for returning to the workplace. The landscape has changed significantly over the past several months since the COVID-19 vaccines were developed and distributed and we’ll discuss both workplace protocols and legal questions.
What About Vaccine Mandates?
There are still some legal questions about whether an employer can mandate vaccination before the vaccine has been fully authorized by the FDA, but the bigger question is whether employers should mandate vaccination. We'll discuss what to consider in deciding what is best for your business and your workforce including:
- Mandatory vaccine policy requirements
- Medical or religious exemptions
- Whether a voluntary vaccination policy can offer employees incentives
- Potential liability for not mandating the vaccine
Also, get the answers to your employees' most commonly asked questions about the vaccine from an Expert Medical Epidemiologist and plan for return-to-work policies.
