OSHA: Employers have 60 days to require COVID-19 vaccines

職業安全與健康管理局:雇主有60天要求接種新冠肺炎疫苗






The Occupational Safety and Health Administration, part of the United States Department of Labor, has set January 4 as the deadline for employers to mandate COVID-19 vaccines.

美國勞工部下屬的職業安全與健康管理局已將1月4日定為雇主強制接新冠肺炎疫苗的截止日期。


According to an emergency regulation released Thursday by the OSHA, employers with 100 or more employees must adopt a COVID-19 vaccination mandate for their employees — and offer a weekly testing option to those who refuse or are unable to receive a vaccine — by January 4, 2022.

根據職業安全與健康管理局週四發布的一項緊急法規,擁有100名或更多員工的雇主必須在2022年1月4日之前為其員工強制接種新冠肺炎疫苗,並為拒絕或無法接種疫苗的員工提供每週新冠測試。


Employers must include all employees across their U.S. locations. Part-time employees do count towards the company total, but independent contractors do not. Additional sections of the ETS detail the situation for franchisees, multi-employer workplaces, and staffing agencies.

雇主必須要求其在美國各地的所有員工。兼職員工也需計入公司員工總數,但獨立承包商不計入。 ETS的其他部分詳細說明了加盟商、多雇主工作場所和獵頭公司的情況。


The ETS requires all covered employers to cover the costs of providing up to four hours of paid time and reasonable paid sick leave to support vaccination but does not if an employee chooses to remain unvaccinated.

ETS要求所有涵蓋的雇主承擔提供最多四小時的帶薪時間和合理的帶薪病假以支持疫苗接種的費用,但如果員工選擇不接種疫苗,則不需要。



Due to a medical condition or held religious belief, some employees may be entitled to reasonable accommodations from their employer, barring undue hardship. Stakeholders have 30 days from the date of publication of the rule to submit public comments.

由於健康狀況或宗教信仰,一些員工有權從雇主那裡獲得合理的便利,除非有過度的困難。自規則發布之日起,利益相關者有30天的時間提交公眾意見。


Additionally, mandatory vaccination policies may exempt employees for whom a COVID-19 vaccine is medically contraindicated, as well as those for whom a medical necessity requires a delay in vaccination, per OSHA.

此外,根據職業安全與健康管理局強制接種疫苗政策可以豁免新冠肺炎疫苗在醫學上有禁忌的員工,以及那些因醫療需要而需要延遲接種疫苗的員工。


Beyond Thursday's announcement, the White House previously set a December 8 deadline for federal contractors to get vaccinated.

除了周四的通告之外,白宮此前還為聯邦承包商設定了12月8日的最後期限,以便接種疫苗
