California announces onsite COVID-19 vaccination program for employers
The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) launched a new program allowing employers to bring COVID-19 vaccinations onsite and directly to their employees. The Employer Vaccination Toolkit creates a simple online process for employers to request approval for an onsite clinic or vaccination event.* Employers may also set up group vaccination appointments with a local, state-approved provider.

After an employer’s request is submitted online, a state representative will follow up within three business days. If approved, employers will receive a list of local providers with which to arrange vaccinations.

Employers must still consider the issue of vaccine hesitancy – a continuing hinderance to the country ending the COVID-19 pandemic. Before mobile clinics or group appointments are finalized, employers should address hesitancy head-on and combat misinformation within their workforce. Our dedicated Return to the Workplace resource is a great starting place, providing vaccine hesitancy guidance and resources as well as communication tools, mental health resources, and much more.

*Employers must meet infrastructure requirements and, if employees are represented by a union, bargaining obligations may be needed. See toolkit page for more information
