U.S. Supreme Court Permits Mandatory COVID-19 Vaccination Program To Proceed Without Religious Exemption, But EEOC Continues the Exemption In Latest Guidance

• Mandatory vaccination programs may be permissible at federal level without Title VII religious exemption.
• The equivalent state religious exemption is still viable in California.
• Social, political, or personal preference objections about the possible effects of the COVID-19 vaccine do not qualify as “religious beliefs” under the Title VII religious exemption.
