Mandatory COVID Vaccinations: There is No Vaccine Against Legal Risk
Janay Stevens, an associate in the Columbus office, and Michael Griffaton, of counsel in the Columbus office, authored an article for the Columbus Bar Association titled "Mandatory COVID Vaccinations: There is No Vaccine Against Legal Risk." The article discussing potential legal risks for employers who require employees to receive a vaccine for COVID-19.
The article states:
"At some point, there will be a vaccine for COVID-19. For employers, the question becomes whether they can require their employees to get vaccinated as a condition of employment once a COVID vaccine is available. The answer is generally yes, but employers must be aware of the potential legal risks and practical considerations in mandating vaccination for their workforce."
