White House Vaccination Initiative
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is developing a rule that will require all employers with 100 or more employees to ensure their workforce is fully vaccinated or require any workers who remain unvaccinated to produce a negative test result on at least a weekly basis before coming to work. OSHA is also working at the behest of the White House in protecting workers from extreme heat and changing climate by developing workplace heat standards and increasing enforcement.
