OSHA anticipates the ETS will remain in effect for up to six months. Here are some key points that you need to know:
Challenges to Vaccine Mandate for Federal Contractors and Subcontractors
Today Ohio Attorney General, Dave Yost, announced that Ohio has filed a lawsuit challenging the federal vaccination mandate for federal contractors, subcontractors and their employees. That lawsuit has been joined by Kentucky, Tennessee, and two Ohio county sheriffs, and challenges the constitutionality order and alleges a negative effect on public safety that would be caused by the mandate. The case was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky, which is expected to entertain motions for temporarily and preliminary injunctive relief that would prevent the rule from taking effect.
