Team,
Per President Biden’s Executive Order, all employees of federal contractors are required to provide proof of full vaccination status. All employees of Tyonek Native Corporation and its subsidiaries are subject to this mandate. All employees will be required to complete the Federal Certification of Vaccination Form which will be sent to you via Paycom.
In accordance with the Executive Order on Ensuring Adequate COVID Safety Protocols for Federal Contractors, Tyonek is adopting this policy to comply with the requirements that all employees assigned to a federal contract and who work in support of a federal contract be vaccinated, and to safeguard the health of our employees and their families; our customers and visitors; and the community at large from COVID-19. In accordance with the Safer Federal Workforce Task Force all contract, subcontract, and support employees working at a federal workplace or working under a covered contract will be required to conform to the following workplace safety protocols: Ø COVID-19 vaccination of covered contractor employees, except in limited circumstances where an employee is legally entitled to an accommodation. Ø Compliance by individuals, including covered contractor employees and visitors, with the guidance related to masking and physical distancing while in covered contractor workplaces. Mask and social distancing are currently required at all federal locations. Ø Contractors are required to check the CDC COVID-19 Data Tracker County View website weekly for community transmission information in all areas where they have a covered contractor workplace to determine the proper workplace safety protocols. Ø Designation by covered contractors of a person or persons to coordinate COVID-19 workplace safety efforts at covered contractor workplaces. Employees covered by Executive Order 14042 who fail to comply with a requirement to be fully vaccinated or provide proof of vaccination and have neither received an exception nor have an exception request under consideration, are in violation of a lawful order. Employees who violate lawful orders are subject to discipline, up to and including termination of employment.
The timeline to comply is as follows:
Manufacturer 1st dose no later than 2nd dose no later than Date fully vaccinated Johnson & Johnson November 24th N/A December 8th Pfizer November 3rd November 24th December 8th Moderna October 27th November 24th December 8th
We appreciate your efforts to maintain compliance with this federal mandate. A list of Frequently Asked Questions is attached. Once you have reviewed this information, you may direct any questions to
I'll answer this because I have the same type of job and am just waiting to get this notification:
1: Prepare a religious exemption form and prepare your finances for a bit of a break from work. Make the form sincere not copy paste stuff.
2: Make them fire you but when that deadline approaches they will realize that their entire company will crash if they force the Vax and will walk it back. No corporation in the country can survive losing 20 to 35% of its workers.
Option 2a: Outright lie about getting the Vax to play their game
3: Apply for other jobs and strap yourself in. I suspect the end game will only be a few months into next year or earlier because the federal civilians, military, and contractors on top of state workers cannot survive a loss of that many employees and will be forced to higher back or collapse. They love money they won't want to collapse.
Also guys it is time to get realistic: If this doesn't turn around in 6 months or less no one will have a job and economy will be in free fall. There are about 4 million leaving the work force each month and that will be a low estimate once these deadlines hit. They won't win and the rockies things get the greater chance they lose their money and eventually their lives if people get desperate enough. Either way quit sweating these deadlines, cut back your expenses and prepare for the worst while hoping for the best. Don't comply.
I have a 6 figure job, a kid on the way, 2 cars, multiple mortgaged and I'm still getting ready to ride out at least 6 months. Hell at this point I welcome the break
