Oregon’s Health Care Vaccine Mandate

Effective October 18, 2021, Oregon will require that healthcare providers and staff working in any healthcare setting be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. The rapidly changing landscape in this area has raised many questions for clients, including who is covered and what options are available to manage the workforce while mitigating risk.

Please join health care regulatory lawyer Kelly Knivila and labor & employment lawyers Brenda Baumgart and Melissa Healy for a discussion and Q&A designed to help employers navigate Oregon’s vaccine mandate.

Topics will include:

• Who is a “healthcare provider and healthcare staff” in a “healthcare setting” under the rule?
• Strategies for managing the flood of exemption requests
• What qualifies as a medical and religious exemption and what is a reasonable accommodation
• Considerations for unionized workforces
• Your questions
