Last week, Idaho’s largest health providers announced mandatory vaccinations against COVID-19 for all employees and this leaves some with the question - is it legal? Do private companies have this right? The answer is yes.
In Idaho and at the federal level, there's no law that would prevent a company from asking for proof of vaccination. Some talk amongst the community on social media channels says, “this is a violation of HIPAA” although it's not.
“It's a legitimate question and employers are entitled to ask that information,” Senior Health Care Attorney J. Kevin West, a shareholder at Parsons, Behle & Latimer said in a recent interview with Idaho News 6.
