Employers Continue Wrongfully Denying Religious Accommodation Requests To Be Exempt From Vaccination Requirements

6/30/2022

 
Picture
Despite the fact that there has been no legal requirement for any employers in California to impose Covid-19 vaccine mandates on their workers, many employers choose to continue demanding that their employees are fully vaccinated.  It is most surprising that even fully remote employees are expected to be vaccinated by many private and public employers, and these same workers are routinely denied requests for a religious exemption from this requirement. It is hard to imagine how an employer could justify insisting on compliance with their vaccination rules with respect to those workers, who never come in contact with their co-workers or company clients / customers.   

We have already filed several lawsuits to challenge this highly unethical practice that leads to good workers losing their jobs and having their careers and livelihood derailed for no good reason , and this lawsuit against the City and County of San Francisco being one of the more recent ones.  We look forward to seeing how these cases turn out in court.
