Potential Financial Impacts of the Vaccine and Testing Mandate to Employers

September 20, 2021

President Biden announced a new mandate which requires all employers with more than 100 employees to comply with a vaccine and testing requirement. This mandate will affect over 2.5 million workers in the private sector, 2.5 million federal workers, and over 17 million health care workers. Employers in these sectors must ensure that their workers are vaccinated or get tested weekly. Further, employers must provide Paid Time Off (PTO) for workers to get vaccinated. Noncompliance could result in fines of nearly $14,000 per violation.
