In order to comply with Contra Costa County requirements, employers should take steps to implement mandatory Covid-19 policies in the workplace to give employees sufficient time to get fully vaccinated in time for November 1, 2021. It is important for employers to properly implement mandatory Covid-19 vaccine policies in the workplace, as there are always exceptions to the requirements above.
