Biden's action plan requires your boss pays you for your time spent getting vaccinated

and recovering from possible side effects

In a move that will impact more than 80 million workers, a new COVID-19 plan from the Biden administration would require employers with more than 100 employees to mandate vaccines or weekly testing, or else be subject to $14,000 fines.

In addition, the plan will require those same employers to offer paid time off for workers to get the vaccine and recover from any possible side effects.

Last April, Biden announced a tax credit for small businesses offering to compensate employers with 500 or fewer workers for covering an employee's time off to get the shot and recover from it.

The rule will be developed and enforced by the Labor Department's Occupational Health and Safety Administration "to ensure that no worker loses a dollar of pay because they get vaccinated."

1. I'm am opposed to this.

Anyone can get vaccinated by walking into a whole host of places. No appointments, no waiting. Why should an employer have to pay for that? And the side effects? They should be covered by sick pay if that is a covered benefit.

2. A lot of jobs do not pay sick pay, especially in the service industry.

One of the many reasons people are fleeing the service industry. They can call in sick, they just don't get paid.
