The State of Florida legislature passed a new law banning private employers from mandating COVID-19 vaccines unless several exemptions are offered to employees. The ban does not prevent private employers from requiring vaccines, however employers must certain exemptions for workers not to be vaccinated.
The exemptions are:
- Medical Reasons
- Religious Reason
- Proof of Covid-19 “Immunity”
- Use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
- Agreed Periodic Testing
The forms to use use for these exemptions can be found on the link below
