Unemployment Insurance - Disqualification Exceptions - COVID-19 Vaccination
What this bill does
Providing that the voluntary resignation of an employee is a valid circumstance for voluntarily leaving work if the employee resigned due to the employer requiring that the employee, as a condition of continued employment, be vaccinated against COVID-19 and the employer fails to provide suitable other work that would not require that the employee be vaccinated against COVID-19; and prohibiting the refusal of an employee to be vaccinated against COVID-19 from being considered gross misconduct, aggravated misconduct, or misconduct.
