The maximum penalty under the current law is $7,000 for"serious violations" but rises to nearly $14,000 after being adjusted for inflation. The Build Back Better plan would replace the $7,000 maximum to $70,000. For willful or repeated violations, the current law allows for a $70,000 maximum , but that would jump to $700,000, according to the bill.
The Build Back Better legislation would also provide OSHA with $707 million to enforce its penalties.Vaccine rules under the Biden administration cover around 100 million employees, making up about two-thirds of the workforce, according to the White House. The vaccine mandate will lead to nearly 23 million employees getting vaccinated, OSHA estimates.
President Biden puts his face mask on after speaking about the COVID-19 relief package in the State Dining Room of the White House, Monday, March 15, 2021, in Washington. Under the rule, companies aren’t required to pay or provide for testing, but they must pay employees for any time missed as they receive the vaccine and recover from any side effects.
