MMAC statement on Biden administration employer vaccine policy

9/9/2021

 
Picture

STATEMENT FROM MMAC: 

“We share President Biden’s goal of increasing the rate of vaccination among our eligible population. The COVID-19 vaccines have been proven safe and effective, and they are the best path for our society to finally reach the end of this pandemic. Many Milwaukee Region employers already have chosen to require their employees to get vaccinated. Many public-facing venues have required the same of their customers. The same is true at some of our colleges and universities. However, we are concerned that this new federal requirement for any business with 100 or more employees to require vaccinations or regular testing of their entire workforce is a blunt instrument that will create a significant regulatory and logistical burden for businesses. We will continue to monitor this policy as it become more fully developed by the U.S. Department of Labor, including the possibility of subjecting businesses to financial penalties for the actions of employees who do not comply with requirements. In the meantime, we will continue to encourage everyone who is eligible to get vaccinated.”
