Businesses in Santa Clara County, California are required to submit vaccination status of all employees.
According to the county’s public health order, “All businesses and government entities must ascertain the vaccination status of personnel and must comply with the rules for personnel who are not fully vaccinated, as required under section 9(c) and 9(d) of the County Health Officer’s May 18, 2021 Order.”
Under the health order, the employee can decline to provide their vaccination status to their employer.
If the employee declines to offer the information, the employer “should assume the employee may be unvaccinated and follow State and local requirements for unvaccinated employees.”
In other words, if an employee refuses to get the vaccine or declines to disclose this private information to their employer, they will be treated like a second class citizen and will be forced to wear a face mask.
The employers are not required to provide the vaccine information to the County, but they are required to collect it and “have it available to demonstrate their compliance with this requirement” (struggle session).

I have a worker who won’t tell me whether they are vaccinated? What do I do?
You must document that the worker declined to disclose his or her vaccination status, assume that they are not fully vaccinated, and follow all the rules that apply to workers who are not fully vaccinated.
Can you say HIPPA.
Welcome to Soviet Russia!
Uhh, we have something called HIPAA. Bad things happen if you violate it.
the county claims HIPAA doesn’t apply. not a lawyer.
How can this invasion of personal and private medical information be constitutional?
They can’t read the Constitution from all the feces they’ve smeared on it.
no way, imo. they are obviously trying to use the business requirement as a “forcing function” for the vaccines.
but, i have a business in county and my wife works for a big concern here. i guess we’re going to have to make some decisions. my inclination is to tell them to go pound sand.
Papers! Unfortunately not a joke, not satire. Real Americans are living under these conditions. We are an occupied territory. I don’t know when exactly it happened, it is an ongoing transition, but there is a hostile power in control to varying degrees in different places.
Unlikely to withstand a court challenge.
Or since this is G W P the fake news test
As long as they are not requiring it from the medical provider there is no HIPPA violation. Note too that employees do not have to provide the info. The health department just assumes they are non vaccinated if they don’t show proof. It is very invasive and tyrannical and unnecessary. It does not even take into account those who had the virus. But it is not a HIPPA violation. It is worse.
I would also note that there is no penalty for the employee who lies his ass off — like I would.
“I Identify as vaccinated”. Let them debate that.
Auf Deutsch, bitte: untermensch.
Must be nice that the health department has so much time on their hands. Lying in this case would be a public service.
No, headline is fake.
The order does not require the submission of anything.
And does not require employees to provide any type of proof.
As an employer you are only required to give employees a multiple choice test, and provide those answers if asked.
You mean I finally get to look down my nose at liberals and berate them for being “transphobic?” Awesome!
the way i read it is that the business has to acquire and keep said information on file so that it can be provided on demand to the authorities.
