The COVID-19 vaccine breakthroughs in late 2020 brought hope that the
pandemic’s end could be in sight, but a return to normalcy will require widespread
inoculation, raising an urgent question: Should employers mandate COVID-19
vaccinations for their workers?
Littler’s latest survey of more than 1,800 in-house counsel, HR
professionals and C-suite executives finds most employers are unlikely to mandate
COVID-19 vaccinations for a variety of reasons, with their top concerns
centered around company culture and employee relations issues. Instead, most
are focused on efforts to encourage vaccination, as well as on continuing
remote work and maintaining safety protocols in the workplace, even when
vaccines become more widely available.
