No surprise, OSHA already showed their true, bureaucratic face earlier in the year when they opted to allow employers forego recording vaccine related injuries for at least 1 year.
I'll probably not seek a religious exception if they are successful and it's not stayed by lawsuits. Not sure if they require regular testing as an alternative, but leaning heavily towards "no".
Go for the religious exemption, that is going to be a win/win for companies as a temporary way to 'skirt' the rule without paying the fine until this gets challenged in court.
Not interested in continuing to play games, it's condescending. It's a Fortune 500 company - a massive one, you guys would give me a lot of shit if I mentioned the name - and I kept my mouth shut when they sprung a diversity lecture on us in the past.
Plus, I'm looking to move closer to family, unfortunately in yet another super liberal state...
But I don't do threats, so I'll keep my options / mind open. I do like the idea of throwing my hat into any permitted class action lawsuit based on principle (payout would be zilch), which would be more likely with religious exemption, but there are already enough reasons to leave so IDK.

Any reason why you wouldn't want to?

Now I'm curious which one it is. I know a number of people that work at F500 companies (excluding my coworkers) and I don't give them shit...
