Chevron shouldn’t allow anyone back in the office or work around other employees unless they’re vaccinated...And they get vaccinated every six months or as recommended by CDC or other Health Org of whatever country the employee is from.
Change my mind.
@1jgt, It’s very clear to me that you’re not a lawyer or at least one that would be on the winning side of a legal case. Chevron knows they cannot mandate employees have to get the shot to keep their employment. And trust me, if they kept me on, just to wait and lay me off 5 years later, I would still sue them for discrimination and win big.
I love seeing all sides of the argument in one place. Chevron is a beautiful place because all walks of life and backgrounds and opinions are diverse as we come together to work toward a common goal: meeting our energy demand. This is why I love Chevron and I love you all!
Arguing with these clowns is pointless. They wanted to "cancel" millions of votes because they couldn't accept the fact their cult leader lost. I heard he needs more money, so open your wallet.
You all have a right to not get the vaccine. The company has a right and a duty to cancel your employment. That is another term for getting fired for not following policy. You would not get severance in this case. So choices are:
1) get the vaccine ( life is good)
2) just retire. ( life is good , you will find another job if you want one)
3) continue and violate policy and get fired for cause. ( life would suck, no employer would want to hire you)
Who is drumming this anti–vaccine stuff into people’s poor little heads. They are doing so much damage to people. It can’t be Rush Limbaugh anymore.
@1zyp, Are you referring to the mindless sheep chip that was implanted in you? No, sorry I don't have that chip and am not subject to it's effects.
@syd, Feel free to elaborate on how Federal mandated dr-g testing is even relevant to the discussion and the executive order referenced below by Tex Gov. Abbott which dictated that the Covid vaccine is voluntary and is not and will never be mandated by government?
We'll wait.
@1ewc: if you’re “Already Vaccinated, bite me” sounds like you’re also a member of the Sheeple Club! Are you missing an intelligence chip?
@1njr, No, it is not a political issue at all, but it does require a basic technical understanding of science, medicine, and testing procedures, which you apparently do not have.
@1njr, go ahead and call me stupid if I choose to pass on getting the shot. Just worry about yourself and stay out of other people’s reasons for refusing to take it. the. And don’t call it a vaccine, because it’s not a vaccine. It is an experimental gene therapy. Hopefully not harmful in the long run, but nobody knows absolutely.
“My body my choice!”
I don’t understand why intelligent people would not get the vaccine. Does Chevron employee people who are not at least at some minimum standard of intelligence? If they employee these people it is a problem with hiring and evaluation on the job. This is not a political issue. It is an issue of basic understanding.
What gives me a chuckle are all the conservatives who normally hate big government and regulation who are suddenly hiding behind the FDA and insisting it go through the normal regulatory approval process. Suddenly big government and over regulation is ok now! Hahahaha!
Employers mandate dr-g testing per Federal law. State statute doesn’t supersede the Fed. Sorry Texas.
Why can’t an employer mandate a vaccine authorized for emergency use? I highly doubt that there’s a precedent that would make such a mandate illegal. I would bet corporate attorneys are evaluating this now.
That is Page 2, Item 3. Damn moderators selectivity changing words in compelling posts they don’t agree with. Read the Executive Order for yourselves and stop being hoodwinked by the E-N-E-M-Y.
Here’s the law as of now in the State of Texas, after the Governor has issued Executive Order GA-35. Read all three pages, but take emphasis on Page 3, Item 3.

End of discussion!
It would be highly irresponsible and furthermore likely illegal for any employer to mandate a vaccine only approved under EUA. There really is no discussion here about whether an employer can or cannot mandate the vaccine until it is fully cleared by the FDA, which historically takes years of review.
Love this post. Not sure though if there is more than a guy posting these.
Actually the ones who should be fired are the id--ts who let a corrupt government talk them into taking an experimental shot. The reason why they won’t though is because they want lemmings they can control! Good luck, you fools will need it.
Should the COVID vaccine be required for Chevron employees to come back to the office? Whatever your opinion is, it’s unenforceable. I don’t think it can be mandated for government or private business to obligate an individual to take the vaccine. The company would prefer you take the vaccine is one thing, but they cannot mandate it as a requirement. If Chevron feels so strongly about it as a condition for employees to return to the office, and an employee refuses for any reason, including in the grounds of it infringes on his Constitutional rights, i.e. religious, health, or other, the company can require the employee to work remotely from home. I personally would prefer having everyone work at the office, but not forcing anyone to take the vaccine.
No, I prefer not to be a guinea pig for the testing of this non–FDA approved vaccine. If you are vaccinated why do you care and are all hot & bothered if others are not? Aren't you protected? The chances of infection and severe illness are extremely rare at this point and the treatments are far more superior now than initially.
if you already have your shot, why worry about those who don't? Yes, we have had vaccines around historically, but in this case, it some don't feel comfortable getting it (in part since it's still so new) and they have NO symptoms, company valued 'diversity' right? LOL. Otherwise for some of the other (you have to do it dogma!), you got your shot, you can take off your mask and focus on your work and not pushing your agenda on others...
This is a public health issue as well as a workplace issue. This vaccine is covered by an FDA emergency order and will be approved by the FDA. There is a huge dataset that will make the decision a no–brainer. I agree that people who don’t get the vaccine should not be allowed to work for the company. There are very few people who cannot get the vaccine due to health reasons. The data even says that pregnant women can get it. I really wish an intelligence test could be given to all members of society. Those failing would be shipped off to some island and they can be stupid together.
What do you care about others' bodies?
If you're young, healthy, with no underlying conditions, there is no reason to be a guinea pig for a non-FDA approved shot as it's not proven to prevent spread.
If you're fat, old, with an unhealthy lifestyle, then yes you're at risk and the pros of this shot might outweigh the cons.
Most people are vaccinated as children to protect themselves and the general public prior to entering the school system in the U.S. Why should the covid vaccine be any different? Unless you’re an anti–Vaxer and don’t vaccinate your kids, then why wouldn’t you get a COVID vaccine?
Yes. And HIV, flu, yellow fever, malaria, small pox, etc.
