OK at Work: Biden’s Instruction for an OSHA Emergency Temporary Standard

September 14, 2021

By Russell B. Berger and Sarah M. Sawyer

On this week’s episode of OK at Work, Russell Berger and Sarah Sawyer discuss President Biden's announcement that he will ask OSHA to implement an Emergency Temporary Standard that, among other things, will require employers with more than 100 employees to either mandate vaccination or to perform weekly testing. The Standard is also expected to require these same employers to provide paid time off relating to vaccinations. Whether this Standard ever comes to pass and is enforceable, the President's announcement is likely to encourage more employers to mandate vaccination and to provide cover for those employers that have already done so. Tune in to hear more about how this may impact your business.
