(READ) U.S. businesses ask White House to delay Covid-19 vaccine mandates


The following is an excerpt from Becker’s Hospital Review.

Industry lobbyists, business groups and private individuals all met with White House officials last week to ask for a push-back on the implementation of a COVID vaccine mandate for private companies, CNBC reported Oct. 25.

The administration is conducting its final review of the mandate, which will require companies with 100 or more employees to ensure their staff are fully vaccinated or undergo weekly testing. The mandate is estimated to affect around two-thirds of the private sector workforce. The Office of Management and Budget received the final rule Oct. 12 and is soon expected to finish its review, after which the mandate will quickly take effect. 

A poll from health policy analysis firm KFF, published last month, revealed  30 percent of unvaccinated employees said they would rather leave their companies than comply with testing or get vaccinated.

Employers are worried that the mandate will drive even more employees to quit amid the highest level of turnover in 20 years. A poll from health policy analysis firm KFF, published last month, revealed  30 percent of unvaccinated employees said they would rather leave their companies than comply with testing or get vaccinated. The responses in these polls are often exaggerated, however, according to financial services company Goldman Sachs. Goldman Sachs’ research suggested that the mandate would actually encourage employment by reducing COVID transmission and creating a safer work environment to invite back the five million workers who left due to the pandemic.  (Continued…)

  1. Quit ? Who’s quitting ? They will be firing us. that’s the only way I’m leaving . Then after the lawsuit, I’ll collect my back pay

  2. There is no need to ask permission. Organize and just refuse to comply. If needed file a class action suit against Biden. Stop begging. Stand up and take back your country and your company. Can’t you see this is part of the Great Reset agenda to destroy the middle class. Stand up. Grow a spine and REFUSE TO COMPLY. Pay no fines. Get a good lawyer.

  3. A big mistake people are making is “requesting a religious exemption”. In this country, and most states as well, a religious exemption is your Right, a Right that is afforded even Atheists. You don’t Ask, you Announce. Employers cannot by law deny that Right. Any who do are breaking the law. Every time I hear a person’s Religious Exemption request was denied I’m baffled. You don’t Ask, and they can’t Deny. I’m not a lawyer, but I have listened to several as I work and wait for that time to come to my workplace, and I’m ready for it. Declare you are exercising your Right, document every single thing your employer says in response so you have evidence in your civil suit. Then get a lawyer, get your job back, and all your back pay.
