Should Your Company Make Vaccinations Mandatory |
Have you considered making COVID-19 vaccinations mandatory? If so, you’re not alone. Manufacturing workers have navigated uncertainty and unprecedented challenges since March 2020, even as most other sectors of the economy shut down completely or moved to remote employment. Although manufacturers cannot work from home, they are not currently included in the recently expanded list of eligible New York vaccination groups, prompting a growing number of industry leaders to create a petition to include essential manufacturing workers in the next group.
