OPM Orders Federal Workers’ COVID Vaccine Records Scrubbed

Federal agencies may no longer use an employee’s vaccination record as part of any employment decisions, the Office of Personnel Management said in a memo.

In September 2021, President Joe Biden signed an executive order mandating federal agencies to require COVID-19 vaccination as a condition of federal employment. The order was later repealed.

The Office of Personnel Management is reiterating in a memo sent Friday that effective immediately, federal agencies may not use a person’s COVID-19 vaccine status, history of noncompliance with prior COVID-19 vaccination mandates, or requests for exemptions from such mandates in any employment-related decisions, including but not limited to hiring, promotion, discipline, or termination.
