Get the shot or take a hike.
After months of reluctance, Corporate America is
taking a stand on keeping its returning workers safe. A growing number of companies are
requiring vaccinations for employees and in some cases, for clients and customers.
Most companies are allowing for very rare religious and health exemptions, of course. But the “I read something scary on Facebook” excuse doesn’t apply anymore.
Silicon Valley is leading the way.
Facebook and Google announced all employees returning to the office must be vaccinated.
These companies are requiring Covid-19 vaccines for their employees
Netflix
(NFLX) is the first studio to mandate the vaccine. All actors who star in the streaming giant’s programming and the employees who come in contact with them must have the shot.
Wall Street offices are filling up fast. And vaccines are required. The financial sector says get vaxxed or find a new job. BlackRock
(BLK) and Morgan Stanley
(MS) announced
all employees must be vaccinated to return to the office.
It’s a diverse list. Saks Fifth Avenue, the Washington Post, Ascension Health, and Lyft
(LYFT) are also requiring the shot to work.
It’s
good business. Johnny Taylor, Jr, of the Society of Human Resource Management, says most employees want vaccine mandates. They want to know their workplace is safe when people return. His polling shows nearly 70% of employees want their colleagues to be vaccinated. And patience has worn thin with the vaccine-hesitant.
I would change 'vaccine-hesitant' to 'gigantic pussies', but that's just my desire for accuracy in reporting.
