AI Summary
This bill, known as the "Informed Consent in the Workplace Act," prohibits employers from discriminating against individuals who have not received or decline to receive certain vaccinations, such as influenza, Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis), or COVID-19 vaccinations. The bill also prohibits employers from requiring unvaccinated individuals to wear face masks or display a mark that distinguishes them from vaccinated individuals, and from disclosing an individual's vaccination status to the public. The bill provides remedies, including the ability for aggrieved individuals to file civil suits and seek injunctive relief, damages, and attorney's fees. The bill applies to collective bargaining agreements entered into, renewed, or extended after its effective date, which is 90 days after it is enacted into law.
