Requiring All Employers with 100+ Employees to Ensure their Workers are Vaccinated or Tested Weekly
The Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is developing a rule that will require all employers with 100 or more employees to ensure their workforce is fully vaccinated or require any workers who remain unvaccinated to produce a negative test result on at least a weekly basis before coming to work. OSHA will issue an Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) to implement this requirement. This requirement will impact over 80 million workers in private sector businesses with 100+ employees.
That said, it amounts to same thing as a mandate as there is no requirement for company to pay for this weekly testing.
Even that’s not true. My company is mandating it and specifically said weekly testing is not an option since “government contracts.”
your company's HR is the one full of shit in this case
