Following a Supreme Court ruling, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has pulled its COVID-19 vaccine and testing mandate for large businesses. The requirement would have impacted about 80 million people.
“After evaluating the Court’s decision, OSHA is withdrawing the Vaccination and Testing ETS as an enforceable emergency temporary standard,” OSHA wrote in the memo.
“OSHA strongly encourages vaccination of workers against the continuing dangers posed by COVID-19 in the workplace,” the agency wrote in a news release accompanying the decision.
