On Thursday, OSHA and the White House announced that the vaccine mandate applying to private businesses with 100 or more employees will take effect on January 4, 2022.
We have also received word from ATA that the exception for employees who exclusively work outdoors or remotely and have minimal contact with others indoors does exempt solo truck drivers from the mandate. Labor Secretary Marty Walsh is on record saying so. ATA will continue to advocate for the broader workforce as well.
