Wednesday, September 21, 2022 Beginning November 1, 2022, New York City private sector employees will no longer be subject to the COVID-19 vaccination mandate. Mayor Eric Adams announced on September 20, 2022, that private employers in New York City will be able to make their own decisions on whether to require their employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to report to work effective November 1. Until that date, the mandate remains in effect and, subject to accommodations (general and practical medical and religious accommodations), a New York City private sector employer cannot permit an unvaccinated employee to work in a New York City facility.
