6. New Business
6.1 Discuss and Consider Approving the First Reading of the OSHA Mandate COVID Policy
ACTION
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) published an emergency rule requiring certain employers to require
vaccinations against COVID-19 for their employees. The rule, or emergency temporary standard (ETS) was issued through the
agency’s emergency rulemaking powers and is in 29 C.F.R. 1910.501. This rule requires school districts with 100 or more employees
(including full-time, part-time, and temporary employees like substitutes) to have in place a policy that requires full vaccination
against COVID-19. For employees who do not wish to be vaccinated, the policy must provide for a requirement that employees be
subject to weekly testing and use of face coverings. Medical and religious exemptions must also apply. Policy 209.2 (Adoption of
Policy) allows the policy to be effective immediately but the policy will still go through two readings.
