Vaccine mandates and OSHA: What you need to know

After the Supreme Court ruled that the Biden Administration had overstepped its authority in mandating COVID-19 vaccination for businesses, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration withdrew its vaccine and testing rules. So where does that leave private employers, and do feed manufacturers and large livestock operations have any regulatory responsibilities with regard to the ongoing pandemic?Earlier this week via Feedstuffs 365, Feedstuffs editor Sarah Muirhead spoke with Garry Huddleston, director of feed manufacturing and regulatory affairs at the American Feed Industry Association, about the scuttled vaccine mandates and what employers in the industry need to know. Huddleston provided an overview of the situation and how the Court ruled, and provided some guidance on what feed and livestock facilities should be doing now to prepare and comply with OSHA rules and to prevent liability and exposure more generally.This episode is sponsored by United Animal Health, a leader in animal health and nutrition.
