Major U.S. Bank Threatens to Not Pay Unvaccinated Employees: 'We're Not Going to Pay You to Not Work
As the omicron variant continues to rage throughout the country and beyond, many employers are enacting stricter policies around vaccination and testing for unvaccinated employees.
Though at first hesitant to enforce such policies, many big banks are stepping up to make their stances known.
Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, has advocated for work-from-home policies since the onset of the pandemic, and this week he took an even bolder stance.
“We believe that going to work is a good thing, that people deal with each other for innovation and creativity and just humanity is a good thing … We’re not trying to be consistent, because as you pointed out, there are different laws and different requirements and cities and states and schools, and so here we’re adjusting locally,” Dimon said in an interview on CNBC’s The Exchange. “So in our main headquarters building, we have a vax mandate, but remember, 97% of the people are vaxxed. So to go to the office, you have to be vaxxed, and if you aren’t going to get vaxxed, you won’t be able to work in that office. We’re not going to pay you to not work in the office.”
