Supreme Court Stops Vaccine Mandate for Large Employers

Jan. 14, 2022
Although court reestablishes stay on OSHA's COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing Emergency Temporary Standard, enforcement of health care worker vaccine mandate will be allowed.

As originally reported in The New York Times, the U.S. Supreme Court recently reinstated the stay on OSHA's COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) by a vote of 6 to 3. This move prevents the Biden Administration from enforcing the vaccine/testing mandate for employers with 100 or more employees as set forth in the ETS, which was supposed to take effect on January 4.

However, in a vote of 5 to 4, the justices will allow the mandate for health care workers at facilities receiving federal money to take effect.
