The Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) federal emergency temporary standard (ETS) for COVID-19 has been reinstated by the 6th Circuit Federal Court of Appeals. The court decision reverses the stay ordered in November and allows OSHA to resume ETS implementation and enforcement nationwide.
The ETS established a mandatory vaccination policy requirement for private employers with 100 or more employees. An appeal has already been filed with the U.S. Supreme Court challenging this decision.
Employers subject to ETS should monitor legal developments closely. They should also consider what measures would need to be taken to be considered to have made reasonable, good faith efforts to comply if the Supreme Court upholds the ETS.
