A new survey suggests that 83% of U.S. employers do not intend to make COVID-19 vaccines mandatory for their employees, while another 13% say they have yet to decide. Only 4% of those surveyed say they intend to make the controversial vaccines mandatory for employment.
The survey, conducted by Fisher Phillips and first reported by Law360, reveals that while the overwhelming majority of employers do not intend to make the COVID-19 vaccine a must-have to secure or maintain employment, 75% of employers are encouraging their employees to receive one of the vaccines.
Of the employers who will not force vaccinate their employees, “over half said they thought their workers were already vaccinated if they wanted to be, while 15% said they don’t think their employees want the shot, and 3% were concerned about safety.” Another third of respondents worried that they could not legally require the COVID-19 vaccine for their employees.
