Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.
employer requiring COVID vaccine exemption denied. I've been dealing with this for about 15 months now and the situation isn't improving.
I have worked at this company for 7 years. My position is exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.
What's the typical outcome in situations like this?
NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. Every situation is different so YMMV.
Here's my take on the legal issues.
The legal framework here involves both federal and state law. At the federal level, the FMLA. Your state may provide additional protections.
I'd recommend documenting everything in writing from this point forward. Keep copies of all communications.
Have you tried reaching out to your state's consumer protection office? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
Have you tried reaching out to your state's legal aid society? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
Check if your state has specific protections for this. Laws vary significantly.
Document everything. Emails, texts, pay stubs - all of it. You'll need this if it goes to litigation.
Thanks for sharing. Dealing with something similar myself.
