I don't know if you caught the latest news on this, but OSHA has just made a carve out that suspends compliance with 29 CFR Part 1904 for injuries due to this mandate. Essentially, if you are injured at work or become ill due to exposure there must be a report made to OSHA by law. As of now there is an exception. If you are injured or become ill at work, a report must be filed unless that injury or illness has anything to do with a coronavirus vaccine. If the injury or illness involves the coronavirus vaccine, you are NOT to notify OSHA. They will not accept the report. They do not want to be in possession of any information related to injury or illness associated with the imposition of this mandate.To be clear, we would be betting avatars on whether OSHA has the authority to mandate the combination of vaccines and covid19 tests for large employers as a component of workplace safety? The bet is only settled if SCOTUS weighs in with a full hearing? What if the lower courts weigh in and SCOTUS refuses the case?
Just out of curiosity, why would you think this sort of workplace regulation is outside the bounds of OSHA?
Being handled differently from everything else they've ever done? I hope you're ready for this to be struck down.
