Fox News is requiring all employees to provide their vaccination status in today a collective database.
In a statement sent to all staff, the company urged employees to enter vaccination information into a portal and have implemented a mask mandate for public spaces with the buildings.
The statement says the following:
Dear Colleagues,
As all of you know, the health and safety of our employees has been our priority at FOX News Media since the start of the global pandemic 17 months ago, Whether at work or home the COVID-19 pandemic has had a tremendous impact on all of our lives.
Here are some of the steps we are currently taking given the recent rise in COVID cases nationwide and the spread of the Delta variant:
One: We have asked all employees — whether on-site as part of our essential workforce or work remotely — to upload their vaccination status into workday, This is being done for space planning and contact tracing purposes in conjunction with CDC, State, City health guidelines. All employees must enter their status no later than today, August 17th, by close of business.
Two: Last week, we reinstated our son-site COVID testing program every Monday and Thursday for select essential employees due to their work environment within our New York offices. These employees have been contacted and will be required to test at least once weekly due to their roles at FOX News Media regardless of vaccination status. For all bureaus, please check with your bureau manager or HR business partner for information specific to your location.
Three: In our New York Offices, masks remain optional for vaccinated individuals, but are strongly encouraged in public areas throughout the building. However, we are requiring employees to wear a mask in small, confined spaces with limited opportunities for social distancing and where there are multiple employees, including control rooms.
Four: All Employees and vendors are required to complete daily screening ahead of reporting to work. At many locations, you will be asked to display either a WorkCare”Go to work” green screen or a FOX Clear Pass to a security representative upon entering the building or workspace.
Please know that your health and safety are always a top priority, and, we value your hard work, collaboration, and great contributions to all of our platforms during this extraordinary time.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
