An Iowa employer is reportedly forcing employees to provide proof of full vaccination in order to “resume activities without wearing a mask or physically distancing.”
ISPT, located in Story City, put out a notice to employees on Monday about updates to face-covering requirements:
“Fully vaccinated people can resume activities without wearing a mask or physically distancing, except where required by federal, state, local, tribal or territorial laws, rules and regulations, including local business and workplace guidance,” announced the CDC.
In response, ISPT said it will be “implementing this new guideline for employees that provide proof of full vaccination.”
“Please present your vaccination card to the front office or your direct supervisor,” it said. “Once confirmed, face coverings will be optional for you anywhere in the facility.
“If you have not yet been vaccinated, then you still must follow company policy and wear face coverings whenever social distancing is not possible.”
