Corporate Compliance Insights Features Article by Shardé Skahan, Dawn Solowey, Mackenzie Mullin, and Melissa Ortega on Rising Measles Risks and Employer Vaccine Policies
Corporate Compliance Insights published an article by Shardé Skahan, Dawn Solowey, Mackenzie Mullin, and Melissa Ortega, “Measles Is on the Rise. Have You Reviewed Your Vaccine Policies Since Covid?” The article, published on March 23, 2026, examines how employers should reassess workplace health and vaccination policies as measles cases surge across the United States.
The authors outline the legal, compliance, and operational considerations employers face amid increasing measles outbreaks, including OSHA implications, reporting obligations, employee privacy concerns, and practical response planning. The piece also explores whether—and under what circumstances—employers may consider mandatory MMR vaccination policies in a post‑Covid regulatory landscape.
As the authors caution:
"Any mandatory vaccination policy should be carefully considered in consultation with counsel, to ensure that it is compliant with federal law as well as the growing number of intersecting laws that have been enacted since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic."
