NYMGMA eNewsletter: "COVID-19 Workplace Updates: Vaccinations and Safety Rule"

Margaret Surowka, counsel, recently had her “COVID-19 Workplace Updates: Vaccinations and Safety Rule” article published in the June 2021 issue of the New York Beat, the New York Medical Group Management Association’s (NYMGMA) monthly enewsletter. The article explores new developments in COVID-19-related workplace issues, specifically the United States Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Safety Rule and the law as it pertains to mandatory vaccinations.

“In light of these developments, health care employers should review their own internal policies, procedures, and safeguards and determine what additional steps need to be taken to comply with the requirements to protect their employees from being exposed to COVID-19. If you are considering requiring or incentivizing your employees to become vaccinated, be mindful of the possible accommodations and privacy concerns. Finally, the federal, state, and local guidance continues to evolve; it’s important to stay up to date on developments.”
