With multiple states rolling out phased access to COVID-19 vaccines, many employers are considering whether they want to require employees to be vaccinated, how to encourage employee vaccinations, and the implications of vaccine policies for their businesses. Below are a few of the top questions that Perkins Coie has received from its clients:

  • May I make COVID-19 vaccination mandatory for my employees?
  • If I have a mandatory vaccination policy, what do I do if an employee objects? May I fire the employee?
  • May I offer COVID-19 vaccines at the worksite?

View the responses and additional FAQs here.
