Federal Agencies and Contractors: COVID-19 Vaccines |
|
NPGA composed guidance regarding President Joe Biden’s executive orders on COVID-19 vaccinations for federal employees as well as federal contractors and subcontractors. To facilitate consistent communication and provide clarity on the details of the executive orders, the administration created the Safer Federal Workforce Task Force. NPGA’s Safer Federal Workforce Task Force Guidance summarizes the primary requirements of the executive orders, answers frequently asked questions, and identifies resources providing additional information. Presently, the Guidance provides information with respect to federal employees and employees of companies that are federal contractors or subcontractors. The NPGA Guidance is available under the COVID-19 tab on the Member Dashboard.
The Occupation Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) has not yet produced an Emergency Temporary Standard that will detail President Biden’s announcement that companies with 100 or more employees must mandate COVID-19 vaccination. It is speculated that the Emergency Temporary Standard will require applicable employees to be fully vaccinated by a specified date or provide proof of negative COVID-19 test results on a regular basis. It is expected that the Emergency Temporary Standard will address many questions of scope, including the definition of employee, vaccination status before employment or thereafter, testing frequency and type, testing cost, etc. OSHA must finalize the Emergency Temporary Standard within six months of publishing the Emergency Temporary Standard.
Please direct any questions to Sarah Reboli, NPGA Senior Director of Regulatory & Industry Affairs.
