In-N-Out Burger, the popular California-based burger chain, is reportedly barring employees in certain states from wearing face masks without explicit medical direction.
Company leadership issued new employee policies last week barring workers in Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Texas, and Utah from wearing face masks at work unless they have a doctor's note.
The policy is meant to prioritize In-N-Out Burger's "exceptional customer service."
"We are introducing new mask guidelines that emphasize the importance of customer service and the ability to show our Associates smiles and other facial features while considering the health and well-being of all individuals," the company told employees in a message. "We believe this policy will also help to promote clear and effective communication both with our Customers and among our Associates."
Employees in California and Oregon, meanwhile, can still wear masks but are limited to company-provided N-95 masks in the absence of a doctor's note, the company told employees.
Any employee who violates the policy will be subject to disciplinary measures up to termination. The policy change takes effect on Aug. 14.
In-N-Out Burger is known for taking bold stances.
The company, which prints Bible verses on its products, made headlines in 2021 for refusing to enforce San Francisco's COVID-19 vaccine policy that required businesses to verify the vaccine status of customers.
The company said at the time:
We refuse to become the vaccination police for any government. It is unreasonable, invasive, and unsafe to force our restaurant Associates to segregate Customers into those who may be served and those who may not, whether based on the documentation they carry, or any other reason.
We fiercely disagree with any government dictate that forces a private company to discriminate against customers who choose to patronize their business. This is clear governmental overreach and is intrusive, improper, and offensive.
TheBlaze reached out to In-N-Out Burger for comment, but the company did not return a message.

This is the mask mandate I can support.
Same, the BEST thing about them, is they know who they are. They don’t have 17 pages of items on the menu, they don’t have a chicken sandwich, it’s burgers, fries, cokes and maybe a milkshake.
“How does a company that prints Bible verses survive in California ?”
people like their hamburgers ...

Bob was a good one for sure and those bastards stole that race and raised stealing elections to an art form.
For example Loretta Sanchez gets her sister Linda to run even though Linda Sanchez knew nothing about politics. So now we have the intrepid Barrio Sisters in Congress representing the downtrodden migrant. *spit*

I believe Pelosi and a few other RAT families have totally rigged CA elections; hence, the state is in a form of political captivity.
Prove me wrong.
There is an ongoing battle between Whataburger and In-N-Out… I prefer the latter. Great milkshakes….
To get a perfect french fry you have to wash the starch off of the spuds after cutting them (keeps the fry from cooking properly). I-N-O doesn’t do that, thus soggy fries.
I'm in California and I totally agree with you - nothing special about In-N-Out burgers and fries; the fries are particularly tasteless. But, at a couple of In-N-Out burger places nearby there are always long drive-through lines and full parking lots. I think it's a cult.
YES!
Covidism is so 19....84!
I'm in Florida so there are Whataburgers here. I've eaten a lot of In-n-Out in California and they're much better than Whataburger, it's no contest. I'll take In-n-Out any day and twice on Sunday!

Whataburger is good but still behind in-n-out, matter of fact smashburger and even wendy’s I find better than Whataburger although five guys being good too is waaaaay to expensive to have more than once a year
Now if they’ll just teach their workers how to wear those paper hats. The point of the hats is to keep hair from falling into the food, so it does no good to wear the hat on the back of your head.
