United Airlines Will Require New Hires in the U.S. to Get the COVID-19 Vaccine
In efforts to combat the spread of COVID-19, United Airline said it will require new US-based employees to be vaccinated against the virus.
According to United, new employees will be required to upload their COVID-19 vaccine cards into the airlines internal system. The airline did add that it would accommodate those who are unable to be vaccinated due to medical or religious reasons.
“As we welcome new employees to the company, it’s important we instill in them United’s strong commitment to safety. As part of this commitment, effective for all job offers made after June 15, 2021, we will require any external candidates for U.S.-based jobs to attest that they have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 by their start date,” United stated.
