Rumors that a mandate is coming down the pike.

Just letting you all know. They will require disclosure of status. They are debating whether or not to allow PAID TESTING instead. Not optional. Terminated if not reported or tested. Testing isn't for sure yet, they are evaluating if they will do that or just mandate the shot. Every exemption will be scrutinized and rejected as often as possible. Religious exemptions are first for rejection.

Everyone is going back in to the office and this policy will be enacted at the same time as the rest of the unreported go back in.

Good luck to all, expect the answer in the next few weeks. Source: I got nothing except me. Not going to give anything out about myself.

Good. Get the shot. It's not political is common sense. Don't want to get thr shot because it's your right not to? The company has a right to mandate it. This is at-will employment. If you don't want the shot you know where the door is.. maybe look for some staff openings on far-right/big lie election teams.

ESAT will not drop next because of RTO. We were told how to answer this year's survey.

Nice job to the OP. You really read the tea leaves well. I’m glad she’s out. We can only hope Aditya is better. He seems nice enough.

I would estimate that over 80% of BofA associates have had at least the first vaccine by now anyway... the Bank's vaccine portal vastly under accounts the vaccinated in the company due to the id--tic approach leadership took with it. When you mislead associates who did the right thing by updating their status, and force them to return to the office earlier then how can they expect most vaccinated to not want to comply.

It's completely unnecessary to force a mandate, they should instead focus on providing incentives that will contribute to voluntary compliance and boost sagging morale.

BAC loves Biden’s mandate. They knew it was coming. If you’re not vaccinated, you’ll be out. It’s a double win for the company. They get an excuse to force RTO and fire the non compliant.

So this was posted before Biden's announcement? Wow. Interesting, and spot on.

Also, anyone else notice that Biden's announcement is on the SAME DAY as RTO?

BM knew. Its a club, and we ain't in it.

Unvaccinated will soon be required to return to office. I'm hearing as early as October/Nov. BofA to enforce new Biden vaccine mandate or you can opt for weekly testing. BofA however may not even make weekly testing an option. OP is right.

Based on executive plan I think you will need to be vaccinated or tested once a week...who will pay for testing and what will happen to uncaccinated health premiums is the major question..

they should re-evaluate their stance based on the turnover. it's not apparent now but when you go back and see empty desks...it's probably cause they left.
attrition is wild. It's probably good enough BM to pay your lavish bonus to you and your cronies.

If I'm still around next year, I can't wait to see how far ESAT survey results drop... I'm sure questions will still be fixed and results spun to fit narratives. Some of the survey results were higher this year due to remote working, and they withheld RTO plans until after survey results were due in. Next year will be wildly different.

It's the Bank's right to mandate vaccines and fully return to office but they can't expect employee morale to be good.

Good. Mandate it. Call centers are bad enough with every little sickness being passed around.
