OSHA Reports it ‘Has Suspended’ all ‘Implementation’ and ‘Enforcement’ of Biden’s Vaccine Mandate

OSHA’s website page which updates the COVID Vaccine Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) reads: “While OSHA remains confident in its authority to protect workers in emergencies, OSHA has suspended activities related to the implementation and enforcement of the ETS pending future developments in the litigation.”

National Review reports that just last week, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit fully blocked Biden’s executive order. The order mandated all companies with over 100 workers implement a vaccine mandate for all their employees.

The court ordered OSHA to “take no steps to implement of enforcing” the vaccine mandate “until further court order.”

In addition to being shortsighted and opinionated, “Allan” is doing nothing more than indirectly choosing to take a political side only for the sake of a for-profit HR firm. But for you apparently, he’s some sort of a messiah. For more rationale people, he’s just a ubiquitous corporate hack.

“Allan” is posting updates from the federal government task force who say it still applies and bloomberglaw it isnt just some random opinion he is making up for one of the largest hr professional organizations If you dont believe either of those groups many states including that big human hating one of Texas thinks they are seperate rules too as they are trying to stop the federal contractor mandate as if it is something else. https://aboutblaw.com/0l0

Great!
Now we can all get used to living with periodic outbreaks and while we’re at it, give the virus every opportunity to mutate into something worse!
Excellent work from the incredibly stupid, but why do we bend to them? We are doomed as long as id--ts prevail. Get the shot, shut up.

Yawn. The obsessed Freedumb mandater posting the random opinion by one "Allan Smith, JD". Who cares lol. That's just his interpretation of the hasty, overreaction of a company that took unnecessary actions to an executive order, non-law.

The White House will not back down from next week’s deadline for virtually all federal employees to prove they are vaccinated against COVID-19, despite calls for a delay.

Which is illegal. They are in violation of the courts. This isn't the first time this had happened with this administration

someone getting vaccinated
In guidance for federal contractors updated on Nov. 10, the Safer Federal Workforce Task Force clarified that covered contractor employees must be fully vaccinated no later than Jan. 18, 2022. This requirement is not affected by the block of the emergency temporary standard.”

“ Despite Calls for Delay, White House Says Feds' Vaccination Deadline Isn't Changing
Federal workers have until Monday to prove they are vaccinated against COVID-19 or seek an exemption.

WHITE HOUSE
The White House will not back down from next week’s deadline for virtually all federal employees to prove they are vaccinated against COVID-19, despite calls for a delay.

The federal workforce has until Nov. 22 to provide documentation demonstrating they are inoculated or to request an exemption under an executive order issued by President Biden. The White House pushed back the date for federal contractors to receive their final vaccine shot to Jan. 4, bringing it in line with an Occupational Safety and Health Administration rule that may apply to large private employers. The OSHA mandate is on hold after a federal court temporarily struck it down. ”
