Creates provisions relating to employer liability for injuries from required immunizations
This bill, known as the Immunization Liability Act, establishes that employers must pay for injuries or damages if an employee gets hurt because they were required to receive a vaccine for their job. It defines an employer broadly to include anyone who hires workers or acts on their behalf regarding employee conditions. The law specifically applies only when an employee receives a shot solely because their employer made it a condition of employment, shifting the financial responsibility for resulting injuries to the employer.
